| Incorporated: 1832 |
| Origin: Carroll was originally granted as Bretton Woods in 1772, after Bretton Hall, an estate of Governor John Wentworth. The town was renamed Carroll in 1832, for Charles Carroll of Maryland, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. A popular spot for visitors, the area's first innkeepers were Hannah and Abel Crawford, who turned their log cabin into an inn and in 1828 built the Notch House. Abel and his son Ethan were well-known guides, escorting visitors to the summit of Mount Washington. Later, the railroad brought visitors into Fabyans Station, and in 1901, the Mount Washington Grand Hotel was built at Bretton Woods. In July 1944, the Mount Washington Hotel was the site of an International Monetary Conference that resulted in the creation of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. |
