Unity

Unity was founded in 1764. This peaceful countryside town is nestled between several small hills and encompasses many babbling brooks. Unity is located on 2nd NH Turnpike. It is ideal for fishing, hiking, biking, walking, and snowmobiling. Sparkling Crescent Lake is located on Unity's southern boundary. An Unknown Soldier’s grave from the Revolutionary War can be found on Potato Hill Road. The historic meeting house of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in Quaker City, Unity, was built in 1820. Quakers had come to Unity and Acworth from Weare, NH, around 1800. In 1813 the Weare meeting of Friends authorized these Friends to hold meetings for worship in their new community. These were first held in people’s homes, but in 1820 Amos Johnson gave the Weare meeting a small piece of land adjacent to the town cemetery, and the present meeting house was erected. The Quaker Meeting House is still functioning and can be seen by appointment. Call 603-542-6124. The history and charm of Unity offer guests a warm and interesting place to visit.
