Narrative

May have died by 1864 when 3rd husband Newman Dudley files intention to re marry.

Regarding Priscilla's maiden name and place of birth: Her son Daniel's
death record said
Priscilla Brett, born in Orono.' Her daughter
Priscilla Perkins' said
Priscilla Coburn, born in Bradley.' I lean
more toward her daughter's information for these reasons: Priscilla
and her husband Abner Perkins lived with her mother and step-father
when they were first married; Abner survived Priscilla and may have
been the informant for her death record; there were Coburn families in
the area; I haven't seen any Brett families in Orono; and, her son
Daniel, in 1900 (and when he died?) was living with a daughter who was
born some time after both her grandparents had died. Also, on Daniel's
death record, his father's occupation was "R.R. man." I don't think
there were railroad men in the area in the 1840's.

I have not yet found a record of Priscilla ______'s earlier marriage
to Mr. Page. Nor do I know Mr. Page's first name or parents.

The 1840 census information (with Priscilla on her own as head of
household) said that she was 40 to 50. The 1850 information said she
was 43. (Newman was still considerably younger at 34.) If she is
"Sarah", Newman's wife in 1860, she is 49. This gives her birth years
ranging from 1790 to 1811. She had no known children by Newman, and
her last child by Daniel was Priscilla, born in 1836. So Priscilla,
the mother, may have been born in the 1790's.

But 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.
