	The Lower Huntress is in Portsmouth, just below the Newington line, at the foot 
of the Gosling road.  The name is derived from Clement Huntress, to whom Alice 
Thompson conveyed, Oct. 5, 1831, four acres and two rods of land in Portsmouth, at the 
northwesterly corner of the premises adjoining the road which separates Newington from 
Portsmouth, bounded on one side by the Piscataqua river, and adjacent to the Elliot farm, 
so-called, then belonging to Stephen Pearse.  This land is now owned by Mr. Nathaniel 
Huntress, nephew of the above Clement.  The landing place here is sometimes called 
Thompson’s Point.
