About Barnstead, New Hampshire
Barnstead is a town of 4,915 people in Belknap County, drained by the Suncook River. The Reverend Joseph Adams and his fellow grantees received the land on May 20, 1727, from Lieutenant Governor John Wentworth, but no one settled here for nearly four decades. When families finally came in 1765, many arrived from Barnstable, Massachusetts, and Hempstead, New York, so the new town's name blends those two places. Governor John Wentworth made Barnstead an incorporated town two years after settlement began.
The land isn't mountainous, but its broad swells made good pasture, and farmers found the soil easy to work. In 1830 the town had 2,047 people and about 2,500 sheep. Water from the Suncook River and the brooks feeding it turned the mills, and by 1859 Barnstead had seven sawmills, four shingle mills and four clapboard mills, along with a woolen cloth factory and two tanneries. It turned out so much lumber that it sold the surplus to neighboring towns, and by 1874 the Concord and Rochester Railroad served Barnstead.
- A library from four villagesBarnstead voted for a public library in 1892, but for years its books sat in homes and stores, once divided among the four villages. In 1906 they came together in one room of a Center Barnstead house. After the businessman Oscar Foss died in 1913, his widow Sarah gave the town a brick library in his memory, designed by the William M. Butterfield Company of Manchester and dedicated in 1917. The Oscar Foss Memorial Library is on the National Register.
- Town offices among the booksFor decades the town offices shared the Foss library building with the books. They moved out in 1979, and their side of the building became a children's reading room. A large addition went onto the back of the library in 2000.
- Twin lakes on the SuncookAt 402 acres and more than 40 feet deep, Upper Suncook Lake is the larger of the pair. Lower Suncook Lake spans 295 acres and has three islands. A road bridge crosses the 1,000-foot channel that joins them, and a single dam where the lower lake drains controls the level of both.
- Locke Lake and Lockes CornerLocke Lake, 149 acres, was created in the middle of the 20th century together with the homes around its shore, which started going up in the 1960s. Its water flows out through Webster Stream to the Suncook River. Near Lockes Corner on the northern border, the land rises to 1,190 feet, the highest ground in Barnstead.
