2. Re: [NHSTRAFF] Ministers' denomination [1]
Dear Kay: There is no record of them being formally ordained to serve in any church in either Biddeford or Saco, acc. to my search of "Saco Valley Settlements and Families" by G. T. Ridlon, Jr., which covers from the beginning of settlement of Biddeford and of Saco up to 1895 or in "Colonial Clergy and the Colonial Churches of New England" by Frederick Lewis Weis, who listed clergy from the beginning of Biddeford and Saco. Please let me know if your individuals are identified. Regards, 'Gene Hubba
3. [NHSTRAFF] moving [1]
Hi Perhaps someone can tell me why so many people moved from Strafford NH to Exeter, Dexter ME about the 1830's to 1840's. I have wonder about this for a long time. It also seams like a lot of them left ME in between 1850 and1860. Nancy

It wasn't just Strafford to Exeter/Dexter. They moved from all over New England into central Maine. I've found lots of families who moved up from the Cape Cod area as well. Why? New land.

Maine was a popular spot in the early 1800s, and after that their eyes turned westward to the midwest and far west.

6. RE: [NHSTRAFF] moving [1]
That's exactly it - northern and central Maine were still a "frontier" in the mid 1800's, with plenty of open land for the taking. It didn't take long for them to figure out that the Midwest and far West were more fertile and hospitable for farming and development. -----Original Message----- From: NHSTRAFF-L-request@rootsweb.com [mailto:NHSTRAFF-L-request@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Bill Teschek Sent: Sunday, February 01, 2004 9:23 AM To: NHSTRAFF-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [NHSTRAFF] moving It wasn't j

My Bunker line went from Durham, NH to Sedgwick, ME to Charleston, Me to Wisconsin and then to Minnesota over the years. I believe they were following the logging operations. Or, following the pines, as I like to think of it... Bedford Co. PA GenWeb http://www.pa-roots.com/~bedford/
