Notes - Upon arrival, the Scotch-Irish petitioned the assembly of Massachusetts for a tract of land. The signatures of Archibald Mackmurphy and John Macmurphy are found among the early petitioners of the in habitants of Londonderry before 1738 (Belknap, 1970). The assembly gave them permission to stake out a settlement of six miles square in any unappropriated lands eastward. The Mc Murphy family, along with many of the Scotch-Irish families, settled in an area above Haverhill in New Hampshire referred to as Nutfield because of the great number of chestnut and walnut trees there. They first built huts near a brook which falls into the Beaver River. They brought with them the necessary materials for the manufacture of linen and their spinning wheels. They planted flax, cultured pototoes, churned milk, drank buttermilk , and made barley broth, none of which the English did (Preston, 1930). The way Massachusetts in provided settlement lands to the Scotch-Irish was to have them settle on the frontiers as a living shield against the French and the Indians. The motive of the Ulstermen in coming to New England was to establish homes and commercial activities with ownership of the land and less government control, and to be free to worship as they saw fit. The Scotch-Irish emigrants were also offended at being called "Irish" because they had frequently ventured their lives for the British crown against the Irish papist. The people in New England did not understand the distinction and it was some time before they were treated with common decency. Inter-marriage among the Scotch-Irish families was very common for the first few generations because of the ill-treatment that they received from established settlers. The first dwellings were made of logs but, as saw-mills were built along the area where Beaver Brook tumbles from the pond into the Merrimac, two good frame houses were erected. The first frame house was for Pastor McGregor and the second frame house was for John McMurphy, Esquire (Scotch-Irish Society, 1889). John McMurphy, Esq. held a commission as justice of the peace, dated in Ireland, and so antedated the commission signed by Governor Shute on 29April 1720, to Justice James McKeen, the foremost man of the settlement.
