Connect with Family Historians from around the world! - In the past genealogists were able to make connections with other genealogists. However to do so required a lot of time, and effort, two scarce resources for genealogists. FamilyLink is a tool that connects people in such a way that it makes everyone and everything more efficient, and will become even better as people join the site. Need help finding your ancestor with a local lookup? - FamilyLink provides a perfect venue for families, genealogists and family historians to share their common interests and heritage as they connect with one another and upload their photos, family tree, and family history. Also, as with other social networks, the more people that use FamilyLink, the more useful it will become to everyone else. So I invite you to join and encourage others to join as well, so that we will soon have members in all of the cities of the world--all helping each other to find and preserve our heritage.

County History
Grafton
County is a rural county and is the second largest
county geographically, in the state with 1.716.5 square
miles or 1.1 million acres. Ninety percent of the
landscape is timberland. Grafton County covers nearly
one-fifth of the state. Located in the west central
portion of New Hampshire it shares 89 miles of the
Connecticut River with Vermont and borders Coos County
to the north, Carroll County to the east, and Sullivan,
Merrimack and Belknap Counties to the south. The population
of Grafton County is estimated at 77, 100 with a population
density of 44.9 persons per square mile. Grafton was
one of the five original counties and, until 1803,
contained all the area now known as Grafton and Coos
counties. Augustus Henry Fitzroy, the Duke of Grafton,
an enthusiastically pro-American member of the British
government, gave the county its name. Grafton contains
more inland water than any county not claiming a part
of Lake Winnipesaukee. Much of this inland water is
in Newfound Lake and the western third of Squam Lake.
Over half the White Mountain National Forest is in
Grafton County as is Franconia Notch State Park and
Cardigan State Park.
There
is one city, Lebanon, and thirty-eight towns and one
unincorporated township in Grafton County. Twenty-one
of the towns in Grafton County have less than 1,000
people and one-third of the land is owned by either
the state or federal government. One third of America's
population is within one days' drive of the White
Mountains, making the White Mountain National Forest
one of the most heavily used in the country.
As
in the other nine counties, Grafton County has three
elected commissioners, who are responsible for administering
the 16+ million dollar county budget. Local governments
usually consists of a volunteer board of selectmen
with a paid administrator. In addition, many towns
have volunteer fire departments, conservation commissions,
planning and zoning boards. Public safety is ensured
with the cooperative efforts of local police, the
county sheriff and State Police.
