I had the entire ME 1890 census in my hand and was waiting in line to copy it and the P.A. system announced they were closing in 5 minutes. I will return to the library in the spring when the time changes again, and take my wife to help. She was unfortunately at a genealogy conference and I lost my right hand. Waiting for spring because that gives us an extra hour to get there. It is a 4 hour drive , but the Allen Co. Library in Fort Wayne, Ind. is well worth the trip. They have genealogists and volunteers there and I am positive they would look up the information you need for a very reasonable cost. The library is also online, and has the largest English genealogy holdings in the US. Salt Lake is larger, but has much more international genealogy. Do you belong to Ancestry. com. I do and could look your name up and at least get the index information for it. Possibly someone on the ME. list was much sharper than I was and has the census. Should have not waited to the last minutes, it seems everyone else did the same thing. In the spring when I go again I will post to the list, and just give me the name or names and I will do it for you, if all else fails. Thanks for the information. I know that Rebecca Brackett was alive and living in Danforth in 1890. Also got an E-mail that Rebecca married George W. Brackett the son of Hiram and Nancy Brackett on March 03, 1870. I know Rebecca Butterfield married Abner Mundie on Sept. 01, 1861 in Danforth, Maine, by the Justice of the Peace William Butterfield. I am really interested in locating her children, esp. any Mundie children. Abner Mundie joined the 31st. ME. Inf. , Co. G. in April 1864, and Abner died in Sept 1864.

The Maine State Archives Index to Maine Marriages 1892-1966, however, came up with the following: BUTTERFIELD Polly Danforth, ME BRACKETT Arthur J. Danforth, ME 04-01-1916 Unfortunately, this would be too late a marriage to have shown up in the 1890 Veteran's Census, but it might be worth following up on, anyway. If I might ask, how does one go about getting access to, and/or, viewing the 1890 Washington, Maine Veteran's Census? I'd like to look at that, if possible. Thanx.
