Sites throughout Portsmouth, NH | |
About: Portsmouth, NH has been home to Africans and African-Americans for more than 350 years. The Portsmouth Black Heritage Trail guide takes the reader to a selection of 24 sites where Portsmouth’s black residents lived, worked, prayed and celebrated from the 17th century through the Civil Rights Movement of the 20th century. It tells stories omitted from three centuries of white historical narrative. The Langdon House, marked here, is site #14 on the trail.
