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.
Piscataquis County
Piscataquis County was incorporated in 1838, taken from parts of adjacent Penobscot & Somerset Counties.
It is located at the geographic center of Maine. Originally it extended north to the Canadian border, but
in 1844 its northern portion was annexed by Aroostook County. In land area, Piscataquis is one of the largest
U.S. counties east of the Mississippi River.
Piscataquis is an Abenaki word meaning "branch of the river" or "at the river branch."
