Excerpt from History of Durham, Maine: With Genealogical Notes Not the least important and interesting feature of this volume IS the portraits and illustrations, which have largely been furnished by the generosity of friends. The endeavor has been to present as good results as the art of the engraver could produce from defective daguerreotypes, tin-types and photographs collected. The credit is due to the Suffolk Engraving Company of Boston. It is believed that the History will be of especial service to Genealogists, since all the births, marriages and deaths found in Durham Town Records down to 1840 are either interwoven with the genealogies or appended at the end of the volume. This may save many a journey to Durham and much labor to the Town Clerk. Special effort has been made to secure accuracy and fulness. In a few cases the Town Records have been corrected by indisputable evidence from private sources. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
