Boothbay, Maine Marriage Intentions, 1766-1904 

by Fred Bennett

Fred Bennett of Ontario spent untold hours creating a database of all Boothbay marriage intentions from 1766 to 1904. Fred principally used as sources Greene's 1766-1820 list of intentions in his 1906 history and Elizabeth F. Reed's never-published 1820-1904 list. Fred's work is laid out in five different formats: by date, man's last name, woman's last maiden name, man's first name, and woman's first name.
    Fred generously donated all his labor and did the legwork to get the books bound. Bound with a plastic GBC spine, the work is 230 pages long.
