How it began and why you're here...

Readfield, Kennebec County, Maine was originally incorporated in 1771 as part of Winthrop. Twenty years later residents voted almost unanimously to separate from Winthrop, and Readfield became incorporated on March 11, 1791. Welcome to this web site where you will meet the courageous men and women who founded our town.

1800 U.S. Census Readfield, ME ~ Heads of Households

This census includes a notation (on some) of when and where they immigrated from which I have included here. In 1800 the names were listed in geographical rather than alphabetical order but I am listing names here alphabetically. I have also added a few comments and questions after some names where I felt it might be helpful.  Though I have done my best to record these names accurately I can make errors like anyone else so please bear that in mind.
