The New Hampshire Society was the last of the American branches to be organized. Veteran officers of the New Hampshire Continental Line founded the New Hampshire Society on November 28, 1783, at the Folsom Tavern in Exeter. They elected as its first officers: Brig. Gen. John Sullivan, president; Lt. Col. Henry Dearborn, vice president; Capt. Ebenezer Sullivan, secretary; Col. Joseph Cilley, treasurer; and Capt. Jonathan Cass, assistant treasurer. The New Hampshire Society ultimately included thirty-one original members.

By the 1790s, the New Hampshire Society struggled to attract members to its annual meetings, which were held on the Fourth of July in taverns and homes primarily in Exeter and Portsmouth. The last recorded meeting was held July 4, 1824, after which the New Hampshire Society ceased to function. Descendants of the original members revived the New Hampshire Society in the 1890s. In the early twentieth century, the New Hampshire Society acquired two historic buildings in Exeter—the Folsom Tavern, where the society was founded in 1783, and the Ladd-Gilman House, which served as the state treasury building during part of the Revolutionary War. Today these sites are part of the American Independence Museum.
