Landmarks in Ancient Dover, New Hampshire by Mary P. Thompson, Durham, N.H. ©1892, Printed by the Republican Press Association, Concord, N.H. LANDMARKS: Johnson’s Creek Hill NAMES: JONES, William; JONES, Thomas; JONES, Stephen; Johnson’s Creek Hill. This hill is mentioned in the Madbury records of 1803, when $14 were paid Wm. and Thomas Jones for land taken for a highway on "Johnson’s Creek Hill", so called.’ This was no doubt the road laid out Oct. 20, 1800, across a corner of land belonging to the heirs of Stephen Jones, on the hill below Johnson’s creek bridge, to avoid the steepness of the hill on the old road. This, of course, was in the lower part of Madbury. PG 116 - Submitted by C.
