ENROLLMENT OF THE TOWN OF EPSOM

This book was found in the old Town Hall and is held by the Epsom Historical Association. Not sure why it was kept, though the title might give some clue - what is odd is that it lists males starting at age 18 through age 45. Why it stops at age 45 is unknown. Most entries include age, whether single or married, and occupation. Many were just in town for a year or two which makes this a great source to help track people here a short time - and to verify marital status and occupation - a great looking glass on the town from 1870-1883 plus 1887-1889 (and with no 1890 census, a great addition to the 1893 checklist). Nearly 500 entries, broken down by last letter of SURNAME. Click the letter below: (NOTE: SOME BROWSERS SEE ONLY TO 1887)
