Our goal at
Genealogy
Trails is to
transcribe and post genealogical source data so that family researchers
can track their ancestors through time, throughout the country.
This county
website needs a dedicated host to make this site the best that it can be!
If you think that you may be interested in volunteering to host a county
or state please view our Volunteer Information
page and email Kim. (A desire to transcribe data and the
know-how to make a basic webpage is required)
Join our mailing lists for researchers looking to connect
and share information. You never know who you might meet and what family
data they may share with you -- it could start a whole new branch of the
family! We also use the mailing lists to announce our website
updates.
Remember to look
around at the other states and consider donating your source
information -- every little bit helps someone.
Please contact Kim if you have any questions or
comments.
Strafford County was one
of the five original counties identified for New Hampshire in 1769. It was
named for William Wentworth, 2nd Earl of Strafford in the mistaken belief
that he was the ancestor of governor John Wentworth. Although they were
distantly related, William had no descendants. The
county was organized at Dover in 1771. In 1840 the original size of the
county was reduced with the creation of Belknap County.
