1871- 1890 ledger, measuring approximately 6" by 4", that appears to from the area of Lamoine, Maine, as many of the names in the ledger match names buried in area cemeteries.
The ledger may have belonged to Nathan King (1804-1883) of East Lamoine, Maine, and then his son Nathan Dyer King (1842-1933).
In addition to mention of provisions and a farm, the ledger also mentions Rockland, the Hancock House and implies a partnership of men in various coastal trading vessels. Some mentioned:
