New Hampton, New Hampshire

New Hampton is a small town a few miles west of Lake Winnipesaukee in the western part of Belknap County adjacent to Grafton County. It was granted in 1765 with the name Moultonborough but in 1777 when it was incorporated as a town it was named New Hampton. Then it was in Strafford County, one of the five counties of New Hampshire at tht time. In 1840 New Hampton was put in the newly created Belknap County which was formed from the western part of Strafford county. In 1797 the northeast part of New Hampton was set off as the town of Centre Harbor.

From the History of Merrimack and Belknap Counties, New Hampshire, edited by Duane Hamilton Hurd, Philadelpha: J.W. Lewis & Co., 1885, page 870 there’s a history of New Hampton. Something like a census for the town can be gleaned from the following paragraph:
