4th of July and New Hampshire

The signing of the Declaration of Independence, of our Country, was stiil a good 15 years off when colonists from Connecticut were granted a charter on the 4th of July, in 1761 to roughly seven spuare miles of heavily wooded land in the New Hampshire Connecticut River Vally.

Dartmouth College in December of 1769 was chartered, and when the college formally opened in Hanover in the year of 1770 , there was an estimated 20 families lining in the town.

This was among the very first parcels of land obtained by the College upon its founding in 1769, and is the only creation of the center of the campus. After being cleared of pine trees, it initially served as a pasture and later as athleic field for College sporting events. Today, its a central location for rallies, celebrations, and demonstrations, and seves as general, all-purpose recreation area.

Hanover and several other Grafton County towns seceded from New Hampshire and were admitted to the State of Vermont. They all rejoined New Hampshire in 1784.

By the first census in 1790, there were 1,380 folks calling Hanover their home.
