Welcome to the Northwood (New Hampshire) Historical Society web site.  When we broke ground for this site in October, 2000, we anticipated that it would contain town histories, biographies, vital records, photographs, maps and local research addresses. We've made some progress, but there's still more to be done. What would you like to see on these pages?

What memories would you like to share?

Northwood is a town of 3200 full-time residents in the northern corner of Rockingham County, New Hampshire.  The county is bordered on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and York County, Maine; to the North by Strafford County; to the west by Merrimack and Hillsborough Counties; and to the south by Essex County, Massachusetts.
