Islands of Portland, Maine in Ward 1 1837 Special Census: Islands of Portland, Maine (Ward 1) Subj: Re: Which Portland Islands? Date: 1/24/99 10:39:02 PM Eastern Standard Time From: srblair@m1.sprynet.com (Shawn R. Blair) To: Itigapa@aol.com Hi David, This page is great! Many of these are my ancestors. The islands probably would include Cushing Island, Peaks Island, Great Diamond, Little Diamond, House Island, and Long Island. I might be missing some. Henry Trefethen and Josiah Starling owned and may have lived on House Island at that point. The Littlejohn, Brackett, Trott, and Woodbury families in particular lived on Peaks Island. Cushing, of course, lived on Cushing Island. I'm not familiar with most of the other names, but I'm sure the other Islands were included. Not having an Island listing nearby, I may have missed an Island too. Hope this helps. Regards, Shawn srblair@m1.sprynet.com (Shawn R.
