Calling card of Preston H. Waugh (1858-1939) of Levant, Maine


Calling card of Preston H. Waugh, purchased with a group of calling cards, most of them having belonged to people from Maine.

Because of the Maine connection, I believe that this card belonged to Preston H. Waugh (1858-1939) of Levant, Maine.

From brief online research, hopefully correct - corrections and additions requested:

Preston H. Waugh was born October 19, 1858 at Levant, Maine, the son of George Waugh and Eunice (Bullard) Waugh.  On September 2, 1888 at Levant, Maine, Preston married Mary M. Preble, daughter of Rufus Preble and Ann Elizabeth (Bean) Preble.  Preston and Mary farmed at Levant, Maine, and had, I believe, two children, both of whom died in infancy, sadly.

Preston died in 1939 and Mary in 1959; they're buried in the Waugh Cemetery at Levant, Maine.  If you have corrections and/or additions to the information above, please leave a comment or contact me directly.
