Josie Langmaid Monument

Suncook, NH

A tall monument commemorates Josie Langmaid, a 17-year-old murdered in 1875 in a case that shocked New Hampshire. The inscription records unusually direct details of her death, making the memorial far more explicit than most nineteenth-century grave markers. Treat the site as a memorial to a victim rather than a novelty.
