Irene Bartlett advises that Frank Bartlett found this list in a barn on Sutton Island, Irene took it to the Maine State Archives and they copied it some years ago. Irene has the original and one copy. The list doesn't include the very earliest Stanleys and Bunkers. The list doesn't appear to be an official record that was kept over time, rather it appears ti be a list that someone interested in geneology prepared late in the 1800s. The recorder was someone very knowledgeable on the islands, perhaps, a retired selectmen or town clerk. Someone made a few entries (in a different hand) after the original recorder stopped doing so. We have the original copy plus two copies that we have made and bound in brown covers with an index [show more]
