Exeter History Minute - Exeter Under Foreign Rule

Did you know that there was a time—and another time, and a time after that—when Exeter was part of Massachusetts? We're not even kidding. In this episode, Barbara gives the "CliffsNotes" version of how parts of New Hampshire were actually in Massachusetts for periods of the 17th century. This Exeter History Minute is made possible by a grant from the Dan Brown Charitable Fund.

We would like to credit the Library of Congress for the map of the Province of New Hampshire and the Digital Maine Repository for the Pascatway River in New England map.
