Long after King Philip's War of 1675, Massachusetts belatedly granted the veterans and their heirs and survivors land in seven new townships in what was then Massachusetts. Narragansett Twp. No. 1, now Buxton, York Co., Maine, was one of the seven, being settled in 1733 and incorporated in 1772. Here are all of the original records of the town, the veterans, and their heirs and survivors, from 1733 onward.
Picton Press and the Buxton-Hollis Historical Society have joined to bring you the first reprint ever - with of course Picton Press' usual new Every Name Index - of this rare and wonderful book. This offers an early and interesting view of Maine history.
