Landmarks in Ancient Dover, New Hampshire by Mary P. Thompson, Durham, N.H. ©1892, Printed by the Republican Press Association, Concord, N.H. LANDMARKS: Flaggy Swamp NAMES; JENKINS, Joseph; JENKINS, William; Flaggy Swamp. Mentioned July 13, 1721, when one half of Joseph Jenkins' grant of 40 acres near Gallows Hill, afterwards removed, was laid out to his son William. One bound of this land was a maple tree in Flaggy swamp. Wm. Jenkins seems to have settled in the vicinity of Wednesday Hill, but he also owned land near the Frog pond, Back River, mentioned in 1771. Joseph Jenkins, however, had land in 1751 in the vicinity of Flaggy Hole in Madbury. PG 72 - Submitted by C.
