The Colonization of New Hampshire

<p>***During today's episode, you may hear intermittent audio crackling. &nbsp;That is on our end.*** &nbsp;Not many people are aware of the fact that New Hampshire was the third colony to be successfully established, mainly because it was not formally organized until several decades later. &nbsp;In today's episode, we discuss how the early New Hampshire colonies came to be and the differences between these New Hampshire colonies and Jamestown/Plymouth. &nbsp;1622/1629 Patent Map courtesy of: By Decumanus at en.wikipedia, CC BY-SA 3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=11123499Read “Notes on the Recently Discovered Indenture Relating to David Thomson”: https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/moa/AAR8205.0001.001?rgn=main;view=fulltextMore on Captain Mason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Mason_(governor) More on David Thompson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Thompson_(New_Hampshire_settler) More on Ferdinando Gorges: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinando_GorgesMore on the Council of New England: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_for_New_EnglandRead the Minutes of the Council of New England: https://archive.org/details/recordsofcouncil00coun/mode/2upMore on Rye, New Hampshire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rye,_New_HampshireMore on New Castle, New Hampshire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Castle,_New_HampshireThompson Island aerial image courtesy of: https://www.flickr.com/photos/docsearls/2507164419/Fife and Drum by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3748-fife-and-drum &nbsp;License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</p>
