Welcome to Washington
County Maine Genealogy Research
The
Clark Perry House, seen here c. 1890,
is an elaborate Victorian home built by lumber baron
Clark Perry in 1868.
Perry was known for his love of horses, and the
majority of the block
where his former home stands was originally his
horse track.
My name is Bob
Jenkins and I created this
website to provide genealogy
information and links to genealogy
information to assist people in
researching
their washington County Maine
ancestors.
I would appreciate any
contribution that you would like to
make to this site:
biographies, obituaries, birth,
marriage, death info, grave info,
photographs....etc

county seat is Machias. The county was
established on
June 25, 1789. It borders the
Canadian province of New Brunswick. It is
sometimes referred to as "Sunrise County"
because it
includes the easternmost point in
the 48 contiguous United States. Claims
have been made that Washington County is
where
the sun first rises on the 48
contiguous states.
