Portland & White Mountains Stage Coach records, 1836-1838

1 volume

This volume contains records for riders of the Portland & White Mountains stagecoach, which ran in the area of Portland, Maine, northwest to Conway, New Hampshire. Kept haphazardly, with writing often overlapping other writing, the driver documented the location where he picked up passengers, the number of seats they occupied, and occasionally their names. Pick up locations were often at hotels and taverns, such as the Cumberland House and American House in Portland.

Laid into the volume are two, likely unrelated items: a real photo postcard of a stagecoach with a driver and two horses, and a "Stage and Rail Road" ticket from Charlestown to Philadelphia, May 17, 1853.
