Inhabitants of New Hampshire, 1776; by Emily S. Wilson; Published: 1983, Reprinted: 2006; Softcover; 124 pp; 6x8; ISBN 9780806313849; Item CF6422
In 1776, at the outset of the American Revolution, the New Hampshire Committee of Safety directed that all males over the age of twenty-one sign the Association Test--a kind of loyalty oath to the Patriot cause. In effect, this resulted in a unique census of the adult male population since the names of both signers and non-signers were recorded, and it is the most comprehensive list of New Hampshire residents available before the Census of 1790. Previously available in two separate, unindexed booklets, the present publication has placed all the names--well over 9,000--in one alphabetical sequence to enable the researcher to find a person and his town of residence at a glance.
