 History of Marlow Academy of Marlow, New Hampshire

Little more than a decade old in 1850, Marlow Academy of Marlow, N.H. was in its heyday with a well-established reputation for excellence, competing with independent New Hampshire schools such as Andover and Phillips Exeter which had been established in the eighteenth century and with more recently established Cheshire County schools such as Chesterfield and Walpole Academies. This small town academy in Southwest New Hampshire drew scholars, not only from surrounding towns, but also from as far away as Massachusetts, Vermont, Delaware, and Ohio. It was part of a new wave of independent schools formed in the East in the nineteenth century to meet the educational needs of the growing republic.
Welcome from the Conservation Commission of Marlow, NH. We hope you will enjoy learning about our town and our coming inventory of natural and historical resources to aid in guiding growth. This is a community effort with input from throughout our town. We hope that you will be inspired to do the same for your town, and that together we can keep the earth blue and green, a nurturing home for all its creatures, especially for our children.
