I am so glad that I was able to pick up a copy of this book from the Bridgton Historical Society several years ago. There are a few mentions in it of my ancestor Jonathan Seavey (1795-1858 ), who was a blacksmith there, and his son Clarence (1853-1902 ), my great-grandfather.

I was lucky to have a similar experiance at the last FGS conference. I purchased a small book on the Germantown Memmonites just to get a little history on the settlement; but, that evening, to my great, surprise I found there was a whole section devoted to Cornelius Bom, our ancestor, including a transcription of a letter he wrote.
