Why is Concord listed as the capitol [sic] of New Hampshire at the close of this section. If no one objects, I'm going to remove this append in lieu of a later addition, that will list when exactly Concord became the State's CAPITAL. This will be forthcoming just as soon as I locate the required information.71.233.230.223 (talk)03:19, 26 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes the grant was in 1622, but settlers came in 1623:
"Settlers, whose early leaders included David Thomson, Edward Hilton, and Thomas Hilton, began settling the New Hampshire coast as early as 1623"
So when we are talking aboutthis article, we are referring to when the colony was first settled on the division... Not when the land was granted, and not when the land became known as "New Hampshire"Steve Lux, Jr. (talk)

"Further reading" sections in wikipedia are not supposed to be a mass collection of books about any aspect of the topic, especially when the topic is as wide-ranging as hundreds of years of history.
This article currently has 37 books on its list, some as focused as a biography of the Loebs or Civil War politics, and some talking about all of New England. There's no rhyme or reason why they appear and not any of hundreds of other works about aspects of NH history. I would like to trim it to just books that discuss the history of the state as a whole, rather than specific aspects - and, frankly, even that will be too long to be useful. I'll start and see what people think. -DavidWBrooks (talk)12:30, 19 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For an article on the history of the state of New Hampshire, and excessive amount of space is devoted to the slave trade, at the expense of a more rounded reference of the states history. The apparent bias negates any value of the entry as a historical reference, as much of the state's history is ignored in order to promote shame for perceived social injustices. A less biased, more thorough treatment of the history should be made.— Precedingunsigned comment added by149.32.192.1 (talk)16:01, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
