Narrative

I have looked at the microfilm of Old Town's records and transcribed the record as follows from page 207 of the original Old Town records:

30 Aug 1830 Intention Saml Page, 2d Julia Dudley, both of Orono

 

Orono's vital records for the years 1826 to 1836 are a copy made from those in Old Town, which was set off from Orono and incorporated in 1840. Orono thought the records were lost in a fire, but later found that Old Town had the information.

Orono's own records for this time period were a later copy of Old Town's. Their copy was faded and could be read as James or Samuel.

The microfilm copy of the record which Orono has says, on page 363:
30 Aug 1830 Intention James Page, 2d Judy Dudley, both of Orono

 

However there is no James Page 2d to be found in Orono, and Judith is on the later censuses with Samuel 2nd, not with a James.
