Goffstown is located in Hillsborough County

During King Phillip’s War in 1734 Goffstown and West Manchester were designated as Narragansett No. 4, and used as shelter for officers and soldiers. The Town of Goffstown, incorporated 1761, is named for Colonel John Goffe, and early settler, solder, and civic leader. Goffstown was originally a farming community.  As the town was settled during the 1760’s, the timber that was cleared was used in building ships.
