Princeton, established as
a district in 1759, is surrounded by Rutland, Holden,
Sterling, Leominster, Westminster, and Hubbardston.
|
| |
|
Births, Marriages &
Deaths 1759-1842; Intentions 1760-1816.
|
|
Births and deaths
extending from about 1676-1881 (most probably between
1759 and 1842) are arranged generally by family and
sometimes include the marriage date of the parents. A
separate register provides marriage intentions of
1760-1816, with some marriages interspersed. There are
two indexes: the first focuses on pages 1-118 and the
second concentrates on pages 1-193. Neither appears
complete for the births, deaths, and incidental
marriages on pages 194-229.
