16. Road from "near Hill's Mills" (Etna) to Wolfeboro road near Lieut. Knapp's. Nov. 13, 1793. No. 9 of 1st asgmt. Perhaps the very same as that now used from A. Camp n. past the upper reservoir to cors. s. of Pinneo Hill, although portion at Etna end seems more crooked and farther e. Short branch ran off to w. at "Timothy Oen's" house. Last 86 rods lay in One Mile allowance. An extension from Knapp's up Pinneo Hill on allowance ended at Joseph Ketcham's (on the Town Farm of later time).
17. Road from Wolfeboro road e. of Center s. to Stephen Benton's. Nov. 14, 1793. No. 10 of 1st asgmt. Same as now. Began "northerly of Isaac Bridgman's well." Passed the "s.w. corner of Dillano Wright's garden" where the D.O.C. trail to Moose Mt. crosses the old rd. Ended at fork near Thos. Nevens (see No. 12).

Appendix II
18. Road from William Chandler's to his mill on Mink Brook. Nov. 15, 1793 (?). No. 11 of 1st asgmt. Seems to have followed closely present rd. down hill from Chandler place; but turned s.e. near foot. There was no rd. along brook here till much later. (See also No. 91 and No. 93).
19. Road from Wolfeboro rd. near "John Wright's house" n. around Lord's Hill to fork n.e. of J. Spencer. Nov. 26, 1793. No. 12 of 1st Asgmt. Approx. as now. Ran straight over rocky hill between Farnsworth and D. Croal, where are remains of well built retaining walls. Seems to have climbed up side of Lord's Hill between D. Croal and W. H. Jones, beyond which it ran as now in the Mile allowance, to connect, beyond J. Spencer, with "the road running from the river to the two mile road near the New meeting house." "Nehemiah Ester- brook" lived at the n. end of the line surved.
20. Road from Zenas Coleman's to Joseph Ketcham's, over Pinneo Hill. Feb. 27, 1794. No. 13 of 1st asgmt. Seems to be same as rd. now used (as trail only) from J. J. Cocksedge (Zenas Coleman's) past A. Viau and over the hill to Joseph Ketcham's, connecting there, at Mile allowance, with No. 16. Short stretch of Half-mile rd. included near n. end.
21. Road from the River road to the Half-mile road at Widow Wood- ward's. Feb. 24, 1794. No. 14 of 1st asgmt. Upper half prob. same as now, from County Road s.h. past H. H. Cummings ; but continued w. in same general course, and crooked, to River rd. 1/4 m. s. of present fork.
22. Road from Half-mile road at Widow Woodward's over Huntington Hill to Two Mile road near North Neighborhood. Nov. 11, 1794. No. 15 of 1st asgmt. Extension of No. 21, as still used, bending at "a large ledge in the path southeasterly of Lemuel Dow's house" (the cellar hole on e. slope of hill ?) and running e. to reach the Two Mile rd. "just below the hill and n. of a little brook" (at M. E. Hurlbutt ?).
23. Road from Lyme line past Nathaniel Hurlbutt's to Lemuel Dow's. Feb. 27, 1794 part way, as No. 16, and extended as No. 17 of 1st asgmt. Began "from Lyme line near the Mile allowance" but e. of it, and ran somewhat as still used, from R. Rennie past H. Woods. (Nathaniel Huributt's) to join No. 22.
24. Road from Jeremiah Trescott's to Benjamin Hatch's. On Mch. 14, 1775, the town voted a rd. for Jeremiah Trescott "to accomodate him for Meeting." As if in accordance with this vote, on Mch. 1777 "the mile road from Jeremiah Trescott's to Wolfboro Road laid out by the Select Men" was accepted by the town. This led direct from Trescott's house, near E. H. Marshall, to Peter Knapp's (see No. 14) on the Wolfeboro rd. But at the meeting it was voted "that the Select Men for the year be empowered to settle and Determine with respect to the Road from Jeremiah Trescott's to the Mill Road." (The Mill Road was doubtless the one from the Center to Etna). Under date of Oct. 1782 (R.H.) is a survey of a rd. from Jeremiah Trescott's "to accomodate him for meeting," which starts at the Trescott house

(almost on the Mile allowance, w. of E. H. Marshall, makes the same curve past Marshall as now, as far as 4 cors. s. of reservoir, beyond which, because of errors and ambiguity in record, it is hard to follow, but comes out on the Center rd. near Deacon Ordway's line, not far s. of Center. The corresponding record in P.R. for this rd. which was No. 18 of 1st asgmt., is headed "From Jeremiah Trescott's to Benj. Hatches." Although it gives no compass directions, exchanges of allowances for it, here, indicate that the rd. finished after 198 rods across Dyer Willis' land (H.A. lot No. 12 e. of 2 m. line) and across Joel Brown's land 16 rods. It appears thus to be almost the same as the present D.O.C. trail to Moose Mt. Cabin, s.w. of the Center. Sur- veys of rds. No. 51, 56, 65 and 85 definitely fix the "Trescott road" as the one still open, e. as far as the fork s. of H. Slack, whence it con- tinued (like present trail) e. over a low knoll and then diagonally n.e. across the s. spur of Lord's Hill. It is somewhat of a mystery why this road, running near and parallel to the Wolfeboro road all the way, was needed, to accommodate the Trescott family to meeting, when the Mile road, accepted in 1777, led straight from that house to the Wolfe- boro road only a mile away. Possibly the Wolfeboro road, east of Peter Knapp's had already partly fallen into disuse?
25. Three Mile road from Perley Church's to Thomas Nevens'. Feb. 26, 1794. No. 19 of 1st asgmt. Ran as now in allowance from Church's (A. Fogg) s.w. to Parson's Rock (n. of E. Allen), thence along present course diagonally over to 31/2 m. line near Thos. Nevens place (see No. 12). Occupied but 4 rods of original 10-rod allowance.
26. Alteration in Half-mile road near Slade Brook. Sept. 29, 1784. No. 20 of 1st asgmt. Variously defined in R.H. and P.R. Seems to have reversed the original curve of rd. across brook, making it much like present bend in State Highway. Whole length only 150 rods, con- necting at both ends with the "old road."
27. Road from Abel Bridgman's, in 31/2 m. line, to Andrew Tenney's. Mch. 3, 1794. No. 21 of 1st asgmt. A nearly straight spur off from No. 25 from near E. Allen, running abt. 90 rods in s.e. course to site of Abel Bridgman's.
28. Road from Abel Parks' to David Eaton's. Mch. 11, 1788. No. 22 of 1st asgmt. As now, from N. A. Emerson to H. Camp.
29. Road "from Lebanon line to Samuel Greene's." Sept. 26, 1792. No. 23 of 1st asgmt. "To meet a road laid out by the Selectmen of Leb- anon from the new Meetinghouse in sd. Lebanon to Dartmouth College Plain." General n. course, but not straight, for 220 rods. May be an old rd. going into the Aqueduct property.
30. Road from Abel Parks' to Perley Buck's lot. Feb. 24, 1794. No. 24 of 1st asgmt. Started at N. A. Emerson (like No. 28) but ran e. along line of H.A. lots 1/2 m. to cor. of lot No. 15, where old well and cellarhole mark site of Comfort Cushman's house, in back pasture of V. C. Harris.
313
Appendix II
31. Road from Calvin Topliff's to 21/2 m. line. Much like present rd. from W. J. Boyd to C. A. Thompson ; but started s. of brook and after 55 rods, followed line of H.A. lots to its end, w. of Thompson's. No date. No. 2 of 2nd asgmt.
32. Road from Capt. Durkee's to Nathaniel Woodward's. Nov. 20, 1795. No. 3 of 2nd asgmt. Present rd. from fork n. of No. Neighborhood n.w. past R. Rennie to G. Dane.
33. Rope Ferry Road. Started at the "n.w. corner of the College green" and ran as still known to "the rope ferry so called." Feb. 14, 1795. No. 5 of 2nd asgmt.
34. Road from Ezra Carpenter's (on Wolfeboro rd.) to Elias Newton's (on River rd.). Nov. 20, 1794. No. 7 of 2nd asgmt. The rather distinct old rd. that runs from the reservoir n. toward the Tibbetts Cabin, but descended the hillside and came out on the River rd. near W. Fullington.
35. Road from Half Mile line at Tisdale's to Roger Hovey's (n. of Han- over Center). Oct. 6, 1796. No. 8 of 2nd asgmt. Ran from s.w. cor. of H.A. lot No. 6, along the allowance between it and No. 7 almost to the Mile line, double walls, cutting diagonally across No. 7 as it approached that line, whence it seems to have followed the course of the present rd. from the cor. n. of J. Spencer's past W. LaBombard to the Two Mile rd.
36. Road from Three Mile rd. by Benjamin Smith's. No. 1 of a 3rd asgmt. in P.R. Surv. before 1799 (information from P.R.). Ran 107 rods across H.A. lot No. 3, e. of 3m. line, and then on lot of Benj. Smith (probably H.A. lot No. 2) for 124 rods. Seems to be old rd. as now used to A. Iby, and traced beyond, up Plummer Hill.
37. Road from Luther Lane's to Lebanon line. Surv. before 1799 (Scanty information from P.R., No. 2 of a 3rd asgmt). Seems to be the "county road" still traveled from saddle on Blodgett Hill down to W. Goodwin and thence around by Cutting's cor. to F. Monica on rd. No. 3.
38. Road from the County rd. near Jonathan Bearce's ( Bass's) to Timothy Owen's. Dec. 10, 1795. Not identified; but looks as if it ran from near Cutting's corner (on Bearce's lot) n.e. to Owen place.
39. Road from Lebanon line to Mink Brook rd. Aug. 31, 1818. Road approx. as now traveled past C. N. Haskins.
40. Alteration in rd. by Gideon Smith's to the River rd. May 20, 1816. Seems to be the present "Lovers' lane" down the valley w. of H. H. Cummings to the River rd .; but see also Nos. 53, 54.
41. Road from Benjamin Thatcher's to the County rd. Apr. 23, 1816. Agrees with rd. straight down hill from near J. Spencer to near C. Eaton on State Rd.
42. Alteration in rd. between Asa Bridgman's and Dea. Stephen Benton's. May 20, 1816. Somewhat as now, from B. A. Hawley to Arvin s.h. (See No. 9).

History of Hanover
43. Three Mile Road from n. side of 2nd H.A. lot of School land s.w. past Parson's Rock to point where it turns out. Jan. 31, 1803. 5 rods wide. The n. end of this rd. was at fork from A. Iby. (No. 36). Same as No. 25, n. of A. Fogg.
44. Road for Timothy Wells' land, branching off from rd. No. 14. Sept. 30, 1791 (day after surv. of No. 14, but not recorded till 1810, R.H.). Only 2 rods wide. Length not given. Lay on allowance between "Kimball's land and H.A. lot that Ezekiel Wells lives on." Location unknown, but perhaps on the 4 m. allowance.
45. The "Gulf Road (so called)." Nov. 11, 1806, from "a little southerly of Gideon Rudd's" to Lebanon line. Seems to be a re-survey of No. 10, s. of Ruddsboro.
46. Road from Jeremiah Thomas dwelling to rd. from Widow Trescott's to Dr. Laban Gates'. Oct. - , 1799. Ran as now from F. W. Prescott past C. G. Grasse to fork behind Balch Hill.
47. Road (over Moose Mt.) from near Solomon Choate's on Canaan line to Seth West's. June 27, 1817. Four miles long and very crooked. No mention whatever of the mountain. Ran about as now from line s. of R. S. Cross to brook midway between F. Nelson and C. R. Mor- fitt, where it can be traced (now a good wood rd.) up mountain to a heavily walled pasture near the crest, belonging originally to Seth West; and thence n. through woods to clearing and cellar hole of J. Sanborn place (near old Woodward sawmill site), and thence down open road with good water bars to west base of mountain. From there out to the Seth West place (B. A. Hawley) road straight with double walls. An alteration surv. June 1, 1826, still a good wood rd., makes a detour to e. around Seth West's high pasture, on the crest of the mountain, as shown on map.
48. Road from Canaan line near Mr. Eastman's to Wolfeboro rd. July 9, 1817. Followed same course as present rd. to Tunis s.h. passing James Burnham's (cellar hole near town line). Six years later, Selectmen offered Burnham $30 as damages, duly assessed, for rd. crossing his property, "which same he did not accept" (R.H.).
49. Road from Canaan line "near Mr. Ring's" "to farm of Ebenezer Eaton (on Moose Mountain). July 9, 1817. Two m. long and crooked. Like No. 47, makes no mention of the mountain, which it climbed from Goss Neighborhood. Ran approx. same as traveled rd. from near West Farms cemetery to Goss Neighborhood. Can be traced part way up mt. but is badly blurred by washouts on rocky ground above.
50. Road from J. Smith's to J. Chase's farm. May 4, 1817. Seems to to be the curved rd. leading from near Brick Church by B. F. Adams to join rd. on Two Mile line at cellar hole (probably Joseph Chase's) ..
51. "A bridle road" from Wolfeboro rd. near Palmer Cutting's (H. Slack) to "the Trescott road, so called." Surv. July 9, 1817. 92 rods long and almost straight, in s. s. e. course, from point "about 30 rods e. of Titus Woodward's house" (w. of H. Slack's) to his s. line. Seems to have crossed the meadows w. of present rd.
315
Appendix II
52. "A highway laid out near the center of Hanover" May 6, 1802. Appears to be the new location for the Wolfeboro rd. mentioned in Chase's History pp. 180-181, as now used, from n. end of "Parade" e. a quarter of a mile to point "about 16 rods w. of house of Jonathan Freeman, Esq."

57. Road between Lyme line and N. Woodward's house. Oct. 28, 1807. Evidently the stretch n.w. of R. Rennie's. Replaced n. end of No. 23 (T. R. Mch. 8, 1808).
58. Road from Solomon Dow's (M. E. Hurlbutt ?) past Israel Camp's to Slade Brook. Nov. 4, 1807. Substituted for old rd. on Two Mile- allowance, whose w. line it skirted closely. 5 rods wide. (See T. R. Mch. 8, 1808).
59. Road "south of Daniel Dodge's land" Feb. 26, 1812. The piece now used,, from fork near cemetery n. of C. P. Gerue past cemetery and P. F. Lynch (formerly Dodge's) to rd. as surv. for No. 9 near B. A. Hawley.

Surv. prior to town meeting of Mch. 13, 1810 (see T. R.). North portion is the stretch n. of High- lands s. h .; the rest a final location of No. 14.
64. Road from Half-mile road near Zenas Coleman's to the Mile road ... Same as now in use, though grass-grown, from J. J. Cocksedge up the hill to near W. H. Jones.
65. Road from the "Trescott road, so called" (No. 24) to Wolfeboro rd ... at Palmer Cuttings' (H. Slack). May 1, 1821. As now used, for 91. rods. Began "abt. 20 rods w. of Roger Willis' house."

66. Road near Roswell Willis's. Mch. 10, 1823. Approx. same as rd. now in use e. of Moose Mt. (part of Goose Pond rd.) from Bressette n.w. to fork n. of J. Thompson. Willis may- have lived where Bressette does, on a branch of "Willis Brook."
67. Road near David Woodward Jun., on Moose Mt. Mch. 10, 1823. A 60-rod piece of rd. replacing original location (of No. 47) in woods about 600 ft. s. of Woodward saw mill.

76. Road from Francis Withington's house to Wolfeboro road. June 7, 1827. A 29-rod spur, high up the e. side of the mt.
77. Alteration in Wolfeboro rd. e. of Mooose Mt. June 7, 1827. Piece 132 rods long, probably as now traced above cellar of Richard Fitts place.

81. Alteration in No. 62. Dec. 20, 1828. Seems to be just e. of A. R. Fitts, where may have involved a new bridge location. Only 50 rods long.
317
Appendix II
82. "John Huntoon's Road." May 1829. Short spur, 30 rods long, with course N.64°W. on line between Huntoon and Daniel Dodge. Trace- able up into pasture, s.e. of A. Mooney.

88. Road from Wm. Roger's (on Goose Pond road) s.w. and s. to Wolfe- boro rd. e. of Moose Mt. Jan. 26, 1829. As still in use from fork n. of J. Thompson past R. K. Adams to Tunis s.h.
89. Alteration in course of rd. (No. 23) between "David Hurlbutt's Inn" and the allowance s. of John Durkee's land. Sept. 18, 1839. Seems to be the piece immediately n. of cor. of the Visiting rd.
90. Alteration in road over Pinneo Hill (N. 20), between J. Page's and Oramel Pinneo's. Mch. 7, 1840. Seems to be just over the saddle, on the n. slope, where rd. turns to n.n.w.
91. Road from Ruddsboro rd. to John W. Chandler's house. Possibly only a final lay-out of No. 62; but assumed to be at Arvin s.h. May 6, 1841.
92. Alteration in River rd. near "David Smith's new tavern house." June 5, 1821. Seems to be curved piece from old Smith place opp. cemetery w. toward W. Fullington.

96. Road from Wolfeboro rd., at Tunis s.h., s. through land of Joseph Burnham estate to rd. near Thomas M. Colby. Oct. 3, 1846. Seems to be a new location of No. 48 here. In view of difficulty with Burn-
318
History of Hanover
ham family in 1823, over settlement of damages for this rd. (mentioned under No. 48), it is of interest to find the rd. being re-located here after Burnham's death, and especially to discover (T.R.) that in order to get the desired lot for Tunis school, 5 rods by 2, out of land of the Burnham estate, the town had to take it by force, and "apprized damages" at one dollar !
97. Turn in the "Canaan road" near the top of "Stark Hill." Sept. 7, 1846. Appears to be on the Goose Pond rd., near Lyme line. Only 50 rods long. Not identified. "The turn in said road will make it more level and save much labor in repairing and prevent said road from drifting in winter."

107. New location of piece of "Mountain road" n. of Daniel L. Tilton (F. Nelson). July 10, 1889.
Conjectural locations particularly worth investigation.
These have been plotted as strictly as possible in accordance with the original survey, making such adjustments as seemed best to fit the map. There has not been time to check them up in the field; and in many cases, no doubt, the location is erroneous :- 1, 2 (between Hanover Center and Moose Mt.), 9, 12, (w. portion), 16 (s. end), 21 (w. por- tion), 24, 27, 34 (n.w. portion), 37, 38, 49 (w. end), 51, 56 (s.w. por- tion), 70, 71, 93, 100.
Roads still in use; but no survey found on record.
State road up County Hill, from No. 6 to No. 1; e. portion of Rudds- boro road, from No. 62 to No. 59; Lyme road from No. 2 to No. 6; Road from M. Rabassa (on No. 92) to J. J. Cocksedge (on No. 64) ;
319
Appendix II
Road from A. Viau (on No. 20) e. to Lords Hill (at No. 78) ; Road from A. Rennie (on No. 31) to A. Iby (on No. 36) ; New location of No. 31 near J. Boyd.
Roads supposed to exist; but not found in the field :- Road voted in 1782, from Colonel House to Jonathan Curtice's (probably like No. 34) ; Road around s. end of Moose Mt. ridge, back of LaRoche into Enfield ; Road from Jonathan Curtice's to Asa Parker's (from cellar n. of Reservoir over Oak Hill and down to near H. S. Perley?).
