Maine, which once included that part of present Oxford County wherein lies the village of Roxbury, ME. This area was once a part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, later the Commonwealth of Mass., until Maine became a state in 1820. There never has been a Cumberland County in the current state of MA, so my ancestors must have been Maine-iacs. I can say that, because I used to live in NH! Thanks to all who responded, but I think we got it all figured out. Howard
