1870s Autograph Album of Estelle May Cole, Ferry Village, Maine


1870s autograph album of Estelle May Cole (1862-1937) of Ferry Village in South Portland, Maine, presented to her by Maggie Pillsbury.


Estelle May Cole was born 29 July 1863, the daughter of Rotheus Marcellus Cole and Margaret Alice (Allen) Cole.  

On 14 April 1886 at Portland, Maine, Estelle married Willis Bryant Moulton (1861-1938), who was one of the signers in her autograph album.   

He was born 3 July 1862 at Cornish, Maine, the son of David O. Moulton and Mehitable Perry (Wormwood) Moulton.  


Willis' father David O. Moulton, also signed a page in the album and indicated he was Estelle's teacher.
