DEERFIELD PARADE
The village located to the east was settled circa 1740 on the early postal route between Concord and Portsmouth. The militia of The Revolutionary and Civil Wars trained and paraded on the village common. It was a professional, cultural and trade center. Local citizens founded a private academy in 1798.
It was the birthplace of General Benjamin F. Butler (1818), distinguished military officer, Massachusetts Governor, and U.S. Senator.
