Captain John Mason and Ferdinando Gorges
fernando gorges and john mason
They were the two people from Europe who first settled the colony New Hampshire, I think... or they led colonists there first.
Ferdinando Gorges and John Mason were both out to establish colonies and whatnot, as was the fad of the time. Gorges ended up splitting land with Mason...Gorges obtained Maine and Mason established New Hampshire.
The people who first lived in the New Hampshire colony were mainly English because the Englishmen John Mason and John Wheelwright founded this colony in 1638. It was an English colony from 1638 to 1776.

No, there was no problem between the Colony of New Hampshire and the colony of New York.
Pennsylvania is the 3rd colony
the colony that became the state of New Hampshire was founded on the division in 1629 of a land grant given seven years previously by the Council for New England to Captain John Mason and Sir Ferdinando Gorges (who founded Maine). The colony was named New Hampshire after the English county ofHampshire, one of the first Saxon shires. Hampshire was itself named after the port of Southampton, which was known previously as simply "Hampton".
There are two colonies that are the same. The two colonies that are the same are American colony and New Hampshire colony.
