Bradley, Maine is across the River from Old Town, Maine. They moved to Bradley from Boston, Mass, but they were from the Western end of PEI before moving to Boston, Mass. You can visit my web page: <http://members.aol.com/youngcolby/brooks.html> Now, Ruth Gray of Old Town, Maine has written a few books that should be helpful to people doing research in Penobscot County, Maine. I do not have copies of them, sorry, but I am sure the Maine State Library does. If you do not live in Maine get your Library to buy these book. Sincerely, David C. Young
