Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book highlights the fascinating story of how one of the main occupations in 18th-century New Hampshire was the contentious dividing-up of land that rightfully belonged to indigenous peoples. The author focuses on an 800-acre land grant in the present-day city of Manchester, New Hampshire, given to Samuel Thaxter in the 1700s and later acquired by General John Stark. The author traces the boundaries of farms as Stark laid them out, shedding light on the Stark family's history and their role in the town's development. The book delves into the various owners of these farms over the years, providing glimpses into the social and economic fabric of the region.
