Colonial New Hampshire did not disestablish religion. In fact the 1793 Constitution re-affirms religious establishment in the form of a general tax in support of protestant Christianity. the text of the constitution is available at http://candst.tripod.com/cnst_nh.htm.

New Hampshire did not disestablish religion until 1819.

Although the 1st Amendment prohibited a National establishment of religion, it did not prohibit State establishments. The guarantees of the 10 amendments in the Bill of Rights were not extended to the states until after the Civil War with the passage of the 14th Amendment.
