Exeter was one of the four original towns
established in New Hampshire. It was first known as
Squamscott, and was given the name Exeter by the
settlement's managers, the "Exeter Combination," a group of
English colonizers. The river location of the town made it a
shipbuilding center and West Indies trading port. Exeter is
home to the Phillips Exeter Academy, endowed by Colonel John
Phillips in 1781, and the American Independence Museum. |
