The mark of Nahnanacomock. 
Penacook. Their homelands along the Merrimack river, and at the places where the present-day boundaries of so-called “New Hampshire,” “Maine,” and “Massachusetts” exist. This document, signed June 12, 1644, is interpreted as a peace agreement, signed by Passaconaway and Nahnanacomock on behalf of the Pennacook, and the Massachusetts Bay Colony. 
Nahnanacomock’s kin: one source suggests Nahnanacomock is the son of Passaconaway. 
Seen at the Massachusetts State Archives.
