Description

"Early New Hampshire laws required that the towns support those who could not do so themselves, if they had not been 'warned out' of town ninety days before their dependence would begin. Later, the counties were given some responsibility in the maintenance of the poor. This work serves as an index to records found in the New Hampshire State Archives, listing people who were in a position to be supported by Rockingham County or by a town"--Back cover.
