* By this, as well as by the appointments of John O'Brien, it will be seen that the list of Wardens on page 336, vol.

The year only of Mr. Carr's first appointment is given in this Table, and that of some other wardens, because, not being then residents of Thomaston, they were not included in the list obtained from the Secretary's office.

HISTORY OF THOMASTON,
GENEALOGICAL TABLE
OF THE INHABITANTS OF THOMASTON, ROCKLAND, AND SOUTH THOMASTON, DOWN TO 1860, ALPHABETICALLY ARRANGED AND COMPILED FROM TOWN RECORDS, MONU- MENTAL INSCRIPTIONS, NEWSPAPER NOTICES, AND OTHER SOURCES.
FROM the great deficiency of records of births and deaths in the three municipalities, and the want of personal acquaintance with fam- ilies, many errors and omissions will doubtless be detected. Those births, given without specifying the day and month are merely ap- proximations from census returns, &c. - EXPLANATIONS : - b. born ; ch. child or children ; m. married; p. published; d. died ; a. aged; r. re- sides, resided, resident of; rem. removed to; ret. returned to ; c. came ; grad. graduated at ; ab. about ; dau. daughter ; U. Union ; Wal. Waldo- borough ; W. Warren ; Cam. Camden ; Th. Thomaston; S. Th. South" Thomaston ; R. or Rock. Rockland; C. Cushing; St. G. St. George ; Linc. Lincolnville ; Dam. Damariscotta ; and their initial capitals for the months, except January, April, May and July. Doubt is denoted by an interrogation point.
