Abbot Piscataquis Maine Records

In many 'trees' on the web that I search in, I find dates that say be it born, died or married in '''Abbot, Maine'. Are there written records for Abbot somewhere in Maine? At Familysearch.org…Continue

Pam,
The marriage you have sounds like a second union, I have Elijah Hamilton (junior I presume) born Sep 19, 1788 in Coxhall (?), York, ME, married to Hannah Doore (1793-1881) M: Oct 14, 1813 in Harmony, ME.
I see my Elijah died "after…

I sometime think that 'write-ups' get the wrong person intertwined in a story. Here is my email phamilton@new.rr.com and I can or share more info more easily via real email.
Example of 'early write-ups' that was thought to be…

Do you have the book 'The Hamiltons of Waterborough'? My hunch is maybe your John is the John Francis with his dad Charles L.
On page 284, has the info on John Francis. If not, I will type the information for you.

Gotta LOVE the HUNT for these dead folks.
Thought I had found this John of yours but darn it is John Frances with a dad Charles L. Hamilton

Great minds think alike! haha Okay, I agree on the David/Annah lines, and I'm working to tweak it down to Lyman Squier Hamilton, b 1789 MA Married: 23 Nov 1826, to Rhoda Walker all of Brooksfield. Looking at Charles Squire Hamilton b Nov 24…

UPDATE: I am 99% certain that this Hamilton line does come from David Hamilton and Annah Jackson.
Google David Hamilton & Scottish prisoner or endentured servent. He came over on the John and Sarah about 1652. This means the John and Charles…

I was looking at MA for information. I found them in the Waterboro, York Co, Maine 1860 census. All were born in Maine from John to his dad Charles. I suspect that Charles dad was an Adrial 72 years old in 1860 b: 1782 in Maine and his mom Lovey age…

I tried to track down some information on this John Ferdinand Hamilton but came up empty. Will 'keep' looking around to see if I can find something somewhere! Pam H.
Cynthia Hinton replied to Pamela J. Hamilton's discussion 'Abbot Piscataquis Maine Records'
Hello. I'm wondering if there might be any knowledge on John Ferdinand Hamilton, b. 1852-53 MA to perhaps Charles S. Hamilton. They appear in the 1860 Census York Co, ME. and then in the 1870 York Co. Census, John F. appears as Frank J. This J.…

Since Abbot wasn't incorporated or even organized as a plantation in 1820, it's doubtful that Elijah's marriage would have been recorded there. If the marriage ceremony was performed in Abbot, the minister or JP might have asked a…

Thank you very much Paul. Now I know that this bit of information regarding Elijah Hamilton Sr. will remain a mystery:
Name: Elijah Hamilton
Birth: 1759-08-25 (25 Aug 1759) - Berwick, York, Maine, USA
Death: 1837-04-13 (13 Apr 1837) - Ripley,…

Hello Pamela, I spoke with Lorraine at the Abbot town office today and unfortunately the town records prior to 1905 were destroyed in a fire. No copies had been sent to the state capitol either. You could try church records or cemetary records. The…

- I have spent the past 10 years plus wandering through Maine on the internet researching the Maine roots for the Hamilton family. Nothing more was known about this branch of the Hamilton family beyond 'James Hamilton' (1814-1887) came from Maine as did his second wife Mehitable Jane Young (1837-1825) of Greenville, Maine. Thanks to the internet in the early 2000's, the paper trail was established back to the original endentured servant David Hamilton from Scotland who sailed across the pond in 1652 as spoils of a war in England. His stint as an endentured servant was to the early colonist in Massachusetts. This paper trail then was verified with a DNA test against other David descendants through the Hamilton surname projected of Pennsylvania State College, PA
