 Shipbuilding in Durham, New Hampshire
In the early history of the state (1623-1776), the miles of land stretching along the banks of coastal rivers like the Piscataqua, Squamscott, Oyster, and Lamprey "were covered with fine timber." Early settlers quickly identified lumber as a valuable commodity.
Merchants shipped New Hampshire boards and masts abroad and traded them along the Atlantic coast, local carpenters and furniture-makers utilized native lumber in their work, and shipbuilders learned that in their skilled hands the area's lumber made a strong vessel.
Likewise, the Durham Town Records include selectmen's accounts, receipts, writs, and other assorted materials that document shipbuilding and the people involved in the trade during the late 18th and early 19th century.
