Moving back another generation

With winter coming on, I hope to have a bit of time to work on this blog.  Today, we had about a foot of snow, so I took advantage of the break to clean up some of the research.  I'll start pushing into biographies for 3rd great grandparents.  This includes some of the settlers of Houlton, ME.  There are a number of references to them in multiple books about the settlement of Houlton.  Eventually, I hope to index all the references, but for now, I will just note the names of the books.

• History of the Town of Houlton (Maine) from 1804 to 1883, by an Old Pioneer, 1884
• The Story of Houlton from the Public Records and the Experiences of its Founders, their Descendants, and Associates to the Present Time, by Francis Barnes, 1889
• The Story of Houlton, by Cora M. Carpenter Putnam, 1958
