Lewiston Cemeteries
Androscoggin County, Maine
(updated 20 February 2007)
Welcome to the Lewiston Cemeteries web site. The purpose of this site is to provide basic cemetery information and pertinent notes so individual researchers will not have to "reinvent the wheel" by tracking down the same material that others have already found.
All information, especially source material, for inclusion in this web page
should be sent to info@vfthomas.com or
mailed to "Lewiston Cemeteries; V. F. Thomas Co.; P. O. Box 400; Southwest Harbor, ME 04679".
A little work by each of us will save a lot of work for all of us.
