The Manchester History
& Genealogy web site is a volunteer project to offer genealogical
and history resources for researchers of this township and area.
This is NOT
the "official" City of Manchester NH web site. All city
business should be directed to http://www.manchesternh.gov/
If you have photographs or other Manchester NH information (such
as historical documents, old bibles, etc) that you would like
to share, please contact me, and I will give you credit for your
photograph or other contribution.
This web site
is dedicated to the memories of my mother Mary, and my grandmother,
Addie.
