Early Eastport Records prior to 1892 pertaining to Campobello

 

 

Attached are five pages of the information that I "gleaned" from some of the Early Eastport Records on file in the Maine Archives in Augusta.  I didn't have time to go through all of the reels, but I copied pertinent records from those that I examined.


I can't explain why some of the attached records that list children don't follow in numerical order, but "what you see is what you get".  I have used the following "shorthand" symbols to save space:

b. = born,  r. = residence, Campo = Campobello, East = Eastport

 

Information transcribed by John Skehan.
