• Notes

  Deacon John Butler was the first settler in the part of Nottingham now a westerly part of Pelham, New Hampshire. John Butler bought land from Jonathan Tyngin in 1722. The two parcels purchased contained 600 acres and bounded by what was the Dracut boundary, before the establishment of the province of New Hampshire in 1741. John setteled there in 1722 and built a log house in the form of a garrison. It is believed the house stood near Mammoth road east of Gumpas Pond. John was one of the most prominent and useful men in Nottingham (now Pelham). Dedication of a monument to Deacon John Butler, first settler of Pelham, at Pelham, N.H., (dedicated June 9, 1886).
