About the Book
At the time Charles McCoy was living in Epsom there was a 'Suncook Road' leading over the hill from Center Hill to Allenstown. This road is mentioned in deeds as early as 1752, and it was in 1768 that the town laid out the current road from Center Hill to New Rye. It was extended in 1772 'partly on the old way' through land of Levi Cass. Early deeds refer to this road as simply 'the Hill Road' and later as Sanborn Hill Road. The families that settled on the hill were the McCoy's, Sanborn's and Sander's. Along with these families were Daniel Goss and Charles Quimby, and at the foot of the hill, Samuel Blake. Samuel Blake sold a couple small lots at the base of the road occupied by families of Chesley, Weeks and Hall. The road is no longer a through road, ending as it approaches New Rye.69 images...88 pages, new cover
