Records of Jonesboro, Maine

These records were transcribed by Margaret Kelley Ashe in 1937. This transcription extracts original marriage and birth records from the old town books, which were found by the transcriber at the residence of the town clerk. The records include the years 1765 to 1891. The birth records are arranged by family in the original text, with parents' names followed by the names of their children. This formatting has been retained for the database. The town of Jonesboro, in Washington County, was organized in 1809.

The original text is part of the R. Stanton Avery Manuscript Collections at NEHGS, call number MSS A 703.
