Origin: First granted in 1753, this town was most likely named for Alexandria, Virginia, the site of the first American governor's conference. In 1755, five colonial governors met in Alexandria to decide upon action to be taken against the French, who had established a string of forts and trading posts nearly surrounding the colonies. The result of the conference was a declaration of war against the French and their Indian allies. Alexandria, New Hampshire, was the birthplace of Luther C. Ladd, famous as the first enlisted soldier to lose his life in the Civil War.
