ODIORNE'S POINT 
Here, in the spring of 1623, was  established New Hampshire's first  settlement, Pannaway Plantation.  David Thompson and other hardy  fishermen came from England to  colonize and develop trade. They  built a stone manor house, smithy,  cooperage, fort and stages for  drying fish on nearby Flake Hill  Thompson's son, John, was the first  child born in New Hampshire.
