A New Hampshire native of the Seacoast, Russell Prescott grew up in Exeter and currently lives in Kingston. For several decades, he was the co-owner and vice-president of R.E. Prescott Company, a wholesale distributor and manufacturer of water treatment systems. He purchased the business in 2020 and is now the president and sole owner.
Russell practiced Professional Engineering for 30 years and designs many of the products his company manufactures. As a result, he holds several patents for removing arsenic and radon from water. The company, founded in 1954 by his father, employs approximately 50 people and has operated in the same Exeter building since 1963.
Wanting to give back to his community, Prescott served five terms as a New Hampshire State Senator, being first elected in 2000 for two terms. He was re-elected in 2010, 2012, and again in 2014. As Senator, he represented Senate Districts 19 and 23, including towns from Newmarket to Plaistow and Derry to Seabrook.
Prescott was then twice elected to the Executive Council, once in 2016 and again in 2018. He decided to retire from the Executive Council in 2021 after purchasing his company.
Russell enjoys home restoration and recently finished a restoration of a 1737 colonial barn and grist mill in his town. His community service included Exeter Rotary Club, Kingston Lions Club, and the board of directors for the Exeter Area Chamber of Commerce.
He and his wife, Susan, have been married for 41 years, and they have five grown children and seven grandchildren. Following in their grandfather’s and father’s footsteps, his oldest three children are heavily involved with the daily operation and vision of the family business.
