Yes, New Hampshire is home to the "Old Man of the Mountain," which was a natural rock formation that served as a symbol of the state but is no longer standing. However, New Hampshire does not have any designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The closest recognition is the inclusion of the nearby Mount Washington State Park and the White Mountain National Forest in various conservation efforts, but they do not hold World Heritage status.
The two types of World Heritage sites are, Cultural Heritage: which includes historic buildings, monuments and collections of information on how people lived such as photos, paintings, stories, newspapers and books, and Natural Heritage: which includes mountains, rivers, and any landscape. There is also a third type which is mixed.

The Everglades like most national parks and environmental sites are under the World Heritage Centre under UNESCO under the United Nations. Here are the lists of other sites too http://whc.unesco.org/en/list . The above statement is 100%, utterly, and completely FALSE. Neither the UN nor UNESCO has any control or ownership role in any World Heritage Site WHATSOEVER. Article 6 of the World Heritage Convention specifically disclaims any such ownership or control by UNESCO, something that is completely clear to anybody who takes the time to read it. Everglades NP, like all parts of the National Parks Service, is administered by that government body and owned by the U.S. government.
2 World Heritage sites have been delisted. Dresden Elbe Valley in Germany was delisted in 2009. It was delisted because of a bridge project which would have gone through the valley and was seen as a threat to the universal value of the property.. Arabian Oryx Sanctuary in Oman has also been delisted, which happened in 2007. It was delisted due to the government's decision to reduce the protected area by 90% which UNESCO saw as a threat to the value of the property. They reacted by delisting the property.
Ain't any.
