Morrill Maine, History & Genealogy of

748pp. 37 photos and portraits. 23,245 entry Every Name Index. 1998 (1944 & 1957) This small Waldo County town has had the good fortune of having had its history from initial settlement in 1794 until 1887 written by Timothy W. Robinson (this history was subsequently edited by Theoda Mears Morse and published in 1944) and of then having had A Genealogical History of the Families of Morrill, Maine, by Theoda Mears Morse and Charles & Nellie White, published in 1957. Both books are quite rare, and thus students of Morrill and its neighboring community of Belmont (from which Morrill was separated in 1855) are doubly lucky to have this consolidated reprint of both books done in 1983. The town records of Morrill and Belmont were lost in 1855 in a fire at the store of John Crawford, town clerk, making this history unusually important in any research on the Morrill and Belmont communities. This new reprint now contains Picton Press's customary Every Name Index, making it even more valuable for researchers.
