Volunteers Dedicated to Free Genealogy
This Site is Available for Adoption
Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical data for
the free use of all researchers.
We're looking for folks who share our dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this project
be as successful as it can be. If you are interested in joining Genealogy Trails, view our Volunteer Page for further information and then contact Kim.
(Enough knowledge to make a basic webpage and a desire to transcribe data
is required)
We regret that we are unable to perform personal research for
folks.
All data we come across will be added to this site.
We thank you for visiting and hope you'll come back again to view the updates we make to this site.
If you would like to be kept informed of our state and county website updates,
subscribe to any or all of our mailing
lists
Maine is covered under our "Northeastern Coastal States" mailing list.
Washington County
Founded 1790
County Seat: Machias
Sometimes referred to as "Sunrise Country" because it is the easternmost county of the United States,
and it is often where the rising sun first reaches U.S. soil. Many small seaside communities have small-scale fishing-based
economies. Tourism is also important along the county's shoreline, but though it is not as important as elsewhere
in the state. The blueberry crop plays a major role in the county's economy; nearly 85% of the world's supply of
blueberries come from Washington County.
