Effingham, NH Real Estate

Effingham is a town in Carroll County, New Hampshire, USA. As of the 2000 census, the town population was 1,273. Effingham includes the village of Effingham Falls. Pine River State Forest is in the south.

This town was settled by the Leavitts of Hampton, and named "Leavittstown." In 1749, the land was granted by Colonial Governor Benning Wentworth, and he named it "Effingham" for the Howard family, who were Earls of Effingham. The town was incorporated in 1778. North Effingham would be set off in 1831 to become the town of Freedom.

Effingham was home to the first normal school in New Hampshire, established in 1830 on the second floor of the Effingham Union Academy Building, erected in 1819. James W. Bradbury, later a U.S. Senator from Maine, took charge of the school only on condition that it should be for the "instruction and training of teachers." The idea was his own and, at that time, entirely novel.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 102.7 km (39.7 mi ). 99.8 km (38.5 mi ) of it is land and 2.9 km (1.1 mi ) of it is water, comprising 2.80% of the town. Effingham is drained by the Ossipee River. Green Mountain, elevation 1,884 feet (574 meters ) above sea level, is the highest point in town. The community is bounded on the east by the Maine state line, and on the north by the Ossipee River.
