Genealogies of Pembroke New Hampshire

Old Pembroke NH Town House, built 1811

The “Genealogies of Pembroke, New Hampshire” is derived from the town’s second historical volume, and documents the connections of early settler families through the nineteenth century. It emphasizes families of the first settlers and families who resided in Pembroke over a long period of time. Organized alphabetically by surname, the genealogies use a consistent numbering system for easy reference. Carter draws from diverse sources, including town records and personal accounts of Pembroke’s citizens, while acknowledging possible inaccuracies in both their memory and the collection of information. However, by preserving these family lineages, Carter enhances the town’s historical narrative, complementing the first volume’s historical content. Supplementing this volume of genealogies is a compilation of marriage records which occurred in Pembroke, New Hampshire, from 1739 through 1895.
