Hi, I am trying to find out if any part of Strafford County was ever a part of Maine in 1802. My ancestor was born in "Maine" but he is also rumored to have been born in New Hampshire. Anyone have a clue? I have no known towns where he was born. Thank you so much!

I do not believe that Strafford County was ever a part of Maine. It does lie directly on the state border of NH and Maine.
