Marriages before 1892 - Before 1892,
records of births, marriages, and deaths were
kept by the towns and cities of Maine. Some
municipalities kept good records, some kept no
records, and some kept adequate records only to
have them lost to fire, flood, or storage in
private homes. The information on these
municipal records is in most cases sparser than
found on more modern records. Marriages and
deaths, for example, rarely listed parents'
names or the parties' places of birth.
