## History

In 1906, Edmond Pinard (1857-1933), a grocer by trade, developed real-estate holdings on the Manchester/Goffstown town line. Pinard was a French Canadian born in Sainte Monique parish, Nicolet, Quebec, who arrived in New Hampshire in the 1870s and brought many French Canadians to the area. The area was known at the time as "Pinards Ville". It has grown substantially since then, but many of the original families still live in the area.
