On 14 November 2012 the Honorable Governor John Lynch of New Hampshire signed the annual Thanksgiving Proclamation with members of the New Hampshire Mayflower Society, at a session of the Executive Council at the statehouse in Concord.
The New Hampshire Mayflower Society's mission is to honor the memory of our Plymouth ancestors and to fulfill this mission through genealogical research and promoting our colonial history. The annual proclamation makes Thanksgiving official throughout the state of New Hampshire, so our residents can now "officially" enjoy their turkey dinners!

Oh! Did not notice before now that there was a New Hampshire Mayflower Society. Fairly excellent, I must say!
