Documentation - Page Vining

Notes

The “Early Vital Records / 1741–1836” of Lewiston, Maine, reported the birth date of Page Vining to be “March 29th 1803”, but the headstone that Page shares with his wife gives the date as “Mar. 28, 1803.” However, both of these sources are from well after the date in question. Research is needed to determine the correct date.
