You’re right, Kathy Shea. Nice catch! We actually didn’t know about her; I had to do a little research this morning. Cheryl Leigh Buffum was Miss New Hampshire 1965.
And in addition to the “right” answers I posted above, Wikipedia says Kristi Carlson was indeed Miss Keene before going on to be Miss New Hampshire (before going on to tour with the Miss America USO show).

Mike Maher was homecoming queen in 1971. He won on a write in ballot. His campaign for Miss New Hampshire was stopped short after it was discovered he had traded his tiara for new studded snow tires.

I’ll take the challenge. I think Peggy may have been Miss Congeniality, but I’m not sure. Marcia Giovannangeli was Miss Keene State in 1968 and Paula Culley was Miss Keene State in 1969. I think in 1971 a KSC student was Miss New Hampshire and made it into the top five or 10 in the Miss America Pageant. MM
