Landmarks in Ancient Dover, New Hampshire by Mary P. Thompson, Durham, N.H. ©1892, Printed by the Republican Press Association, Concord, N.H. LANDMARKS: Curriell Point NAMES: HALL, Deacon John; HALL, John; ROBERTS, John; MAGOON, Henry; COWEL, Edward; FURBER, Jethro; WAYMOUTH, Benjamin; Curriell Point. Mentioned Jan. 23, 1720, when Deacon John Hall's hundred-acre grant of 1656, between St. Alban's cove and Quamphegan, was re-surveyed for his grandson John Hall, "beginning at a poynt commonly called Curriel Poynt." This land, when first laid out in 1659, was bounded on the S.E. by the Newichawannock river; S.W. by John Roberts' lot, and N.E. by the highway from the river between Hall's land and Henry Magoon's. The name of Curriel Pt., which has not been perpetuated, seems to have been derived from Edward Cowel, who acquired the Magoon land, afterwards conveyed by his grandson Jethro Furber to Benjn Waymouth, and now forms part of the Garvin lands.
