This township was first granted in 1728 to the heirs of Captain John Lovewell and members of his company or their heirs, and given the name Lovewell's Town. Captain Lovewell built the fort at Ossipee and was killed fighting the Indians at Pequawket. The township was more commonly called Suncook, after the river, and another settlement was known as Buckstreet. When the town was incorporated in 1759, it included Suncook, Buckstreet, and portions of Bow that were east of the Merrimack River. It was given the name Pembroke in honor of Henry Herbert, ninth Earl of Pembroke in southern Wales. |
