History

Mount Kearsarge in 1910

The region was once home to the Pequawket Indians, an Algonquian Abenaki tribe which summered here and spent winters at St. Francis, Quebec. Along the Saco River they fished, hunted or farmed, and lived in wigwams sheltered within stockades. In 1642, explorer Darby Field of Exeter paddled up the Saco in a canoe, and would report seeing "Pigwacket," an Indian community stretching from present-day Conway to Fryeburg, Maine. But when Europeans settled here in 1764, the Pequawket tribe had dwindled from disease, probably smallpox brought from abroad. Image File history File links No higher resolution available. ...
