Welcome to the
Town of Easton, NH

Formed from a part of Landaff known as East Landaff, Easton was incorporated in 1876. Kinsman Mountain, the Kinsman Range, and Kinsman Notch are named for Nathaniel Kinsman, one of the original settlers.[3]

Easton encompasses approximately 32 square miles of territory divided by its rivers into two prominent valleys. the norther part of town--what we can the Easton Valley--contains the Ham Branch River and its tributaries, Kendall, Judd, Slide, Reel, and Swamp Brooks. To the south, over what local people call the "height of the land," runs the transverse valley of the Wild Ammonoosuc River, fed by Clay, Black, Tunnel, and Bowen Brooks.
