Saint Croix Courier
Journey Through Time
Let the Good Times Roll 1946-1957
The following records were transcribed by Heather Waddingham from the Saint Croix Courier Series "Journey Through Time". The series covered a number of decades and was published in the 1990's. The records that I copied were the deaths pertaining to persons from Campobello.
In an effort to save time while typing I am going to use a number of abbreviations in these records. The age listed was at the time of death.
** As you will see for some reason there were very few deaths recorded for Campobello for a number of years.
Abbreviations: WB= Wilson's Beach, WP=Welchpool, Campo.= Campobello, CCH= Charlotte County Hospital, DCH = Downeast Community Hospital, OVNH= Ocean View Nursing Home, CNH= Collingwood Nursing Home, EMMC= Eastern Maine Medical Center, SJGH= Saint John General Hospital, *=added notes if any at bottom of the page.
