My fathers'' name is Harvey Earl Bubier and his wifes'' name is Joyce.  I have a sister by the name of Bethany and a brother.  I have more brothers and sister I think  but, I am not sure.  My name is Cynthia Ann Bubier and I was born in Fort Campbell, Ky.  My father was in the US Army.  I know he lived there because I was able to meet him once in my life  when I was thirty.  I am trying to  find out if he is still alive.  I lost my mom and it has been hard on me and I would like to know if I have at least on parent alive.  If he is I would like to let him know that I am a grandmother now and that my kids are doing great.  If anyone can help me my email address is c.dominguez@yahoo.com .  Please if anyone knows anything please contact me, I would appreciate it very much.  A concerned daughter.

This is an astonishing website that shows off an astonishing city government.  Count on Maine for exercising common sense and attending to detail.

I enjoy reading all you have to offer on this site. It has been many years leaving Maine. Originally lived on Rowe Farms back in the late 50's leaving in 1963.
Dad was a milkman and herdsman for the rowe family. Mom stayed home and took care all us kids and also worked part time cooking homemade bread or a diner in Newport which is now gone.

Thank you for making your site and towns news available.

Sincerely,
David Howe

I was born in Skowhegan and lived there until i was 13.  I had to move away and got to see a lot of places.  I am glad I was able to start my life in Skowhegan.  Skowhegan is the true heartbeat of an American small town.  Take the time AND VISIT IF YOU''VE NEVER BEEN...IT''S WORTH EVERY MINUTE!!!!

I visited Skowhegan last year and the trip was very enjoyable. The town''s historical buildings caught my attention. I am already recommended the trip to many of my friends and colleagues and would love to go back.

I grew up on Oak Street. My parents (Stan and Ida Pease) moved me to Mesa, Arizona in 1998.  I was 15.  At the time I took for granted just how special and beautiful Skowhegan is.  I will make it back home one of these days.

Back in May, I told about an old picture of a Homestead in Clinton, Maine, and wanted to find out if it was still around.  well, thanks to the efforts of Shirley Bailey, Jim Rhodes and Coleen Bean of Clinton, I discovered that the house is located at the corner of Main Street and Spring Street, in Clinton.  It is at 1124 Main Street, and although it has undergone some changes, it is still going strong.  If you know anything about the house, or Irving Holt, who was a past resident, I would be glad to hear about it.  Also, if you know of Otto Farrington, of Skowhegan, who sold the photo back in 1958, the same goes.  Thanks to all!

My grandparents were Edward and Mildred Weston, and I clearly recall their place on Beech Hill Road.  I was born in Quincy, Mass., where my parents, Jean Weston & Kenneth Young lived in 1943.  After  Dad returned from the WWII, he built our family a place on Embden Pond Road, in Embden.  My Dad''s uncle was Wallace Barron, and his wife was Daisy Young, dau. of Fred Young and Lottie Walker.

As a family we would also drive up to Norridgewock for the Holidays from Conn., where we moved in 1950.  We eventually moved to Solana Beach, Calif. in 1959. 

I just recall the beautiful Kennebec River, and we''d drive along it on our trips to visit the Westons.  

I hope someone can assist me in finding the artist who either photgraphed, and tinted, or it was a watercolor of the Kennebec, it showed a country road, trees, and possibly a fence , and of course the beautiful Kennebec.  

If anyone has info, I would be so grateful.  I went back to Skowhegan in 2007, after all those years.  It was wonderful.  It was wondrful, seeing in person, all of the places, in my memories.   I plan to return possibly next year.

Does anybody remember Otto Fairington (spelling?) who was some kind of Official of Skowhegan around 1958-1960??  He bought up & sold Estates etc.  Thanks!

We visited Skeghowan in the fall of 2007, been meaning to look up all about your lovely town.  We started in Portland, travelled through Maine then New Hampshire, Vermont and New York, it was a wonderful trip but Skeghowan really stands out as a lovely small American town, completely unspoilt - of course seeing it on a beautiful sunny day helped, I guess!

We lunched at the Empire Grill, the people are very friendly, the place is spotless and the food great!  I understand a film was made there called "Indian Falls", but I can''t find any information about it on the Web.  Can anyone give me further details, as I would like to get a copy if possible? 

Just a comment - it would be nice to be able to post photographs on this site, to assist other visitors, or would this take up too much space? 

Thanks for all the memories!

I am a Pennsylvania boy, living in and North of Pittsburgh.  Around 30 years ago, I was given a picture of a group of 7 people standing in front of a white farmhouse playing croquet.  On the back was stamped "Clinton, Ma"  it was purchased from a man who was Mayor of Skowhegan at the time.  I have written to both Clinton Maine and Clinton Mass, to get information on the house, and if it is still standing.  So my connection to your town is this picture.  You have a wonderful website, and if I visit Clinton, I will be sure to swing by Skowhegan.

Family of mine - Mr & Mrs Frank Oddy - moved to Sowhegan almost exactly 100 years ago from Bradford, England. Frank worked in the Maine Spinning Mill. They had five children - Herbert, John Benjamin, Edna and Albert. It would be great to get in touch to see what happened to them all and to swap photos and other family history items!

I live in Teesside, England.

I grew up out on Middle Road, right at the intersection of Varney Rd. My dad (Marc Derosier) worked for the Claytons down on the old farm when I was really little..I still remember that farm though, I loved that place. When he & my mom divorced she re-married to Harvey Bubier, he was an Army recruiter who worked in the office downtown, right in the island. I miss Skowhegan a lot, think of it often. If you remember me or my family I would love to hear from you..drop me a line in my email...

I spent 2 weeks a year at my Grandparents house on Oak st. ( 1957 thru 1975 ) It was the best memories for me. Waking up in the morning and breathing the crisp fresh air. I will in my lifetime make it back up to Skowhegan to see the town again.

I was in the Air Force with a buddy of mine who was from Skowhegan, We were in basic training during the summer of 1986. I know his family still lives there. So if anyone can help me find him i would be greatful. His name was Mike Hammar.  He was stationed with me at Kunsan AFB during 1987-1988 and we were both doghandlers.
