"BURIAL INSCRIPTIONS And other Data of Burials in Berwick,
York County, Maine To the Year 1922"

by Wilbur D. Spencer
Clerk of the Town

Mr. Spencer has, in some cases, included information from
the Town Records and it is so noted.

SURNAMES.TXT
The file surname.txt was complied by the Editor and is a 
cross reference of the surnames taken from the inscriptions.  
IT DOES NOT INCLUDE names from the INTRO.TXT or 
DESCRIBE.TXT files.  There are names in those two files 
that may be for interest to historians and genealogists.

INTRO.TXT
The file intro.txt is of course the introduction from the
book and includes some notes on Berwick's early settlers.
It also has a list of some of resident's who participated in
"the great struggle for American independence".

DESCRIBE.TXT
The file describe.txt is Mr. Spenser's list of 107 burial 
lots and cemeteries.  He includes locations and descriptions
of each.  In some cases he gives surnames of families buried
in these cemetaries.  Some of these are cemeteries that do
not have any markings on the stones.

PRIVATE.TXT
The file private.txt is the alpabetical list of all the names
of those that Mr. Spencer collected that are buried on private 
lots.  There are index numbers for each name that refer to the 
list in the file describe.txt.

CLARK.TXT
The file clark.txt is the list from the Clark cemetery.
