Notes:

Marriage intentions of Joseph Russell and Apphia Moody filed Sanford, ME 13 April 1776 where the bride was recorded as "Effies" Moody. The marriage record of Joseph Russell to APPHIA MOODY was found in the records of the First Parish Church of Kennebunk.

LAND RECORDS

JOSEPH Russell, Jr. was the Massabesic (Waterborough, Sanford, Alfred areas of Maine) soldier who enlisted in Captain John Smith's Company which reported to Col. Cutts Aug ye 20th 1778 Maine Historical and Gen.Recorder 8 (1895):84 (Massabesick was the old name for Waterboro and N. Alfred)

In 1791, Joseph and Abigail conveyed additional land in Waterborough to their son "Joseph Russell, Junr York Deeds 56:40.

Deed in York Co. Court House, 30 Apr 1793 Abigail Russell of Sanford, ME sold to Joseph Russell of Waterboro, 1 and 1/2 acres of land for 6 pounds.

1816: Nine acres of land in Waterboro by the Shapleigh line conveyed to Joseph Russell by Timothy Pike (York County Deedbook 94:186)

An 1872 map of Alfred shows that the Russell property was located on the narrow northern strip of Alfred that lay between Waterboro and Shapleigh. Lots 31 and 32 were adjacent to the northernmost tip of what would become the town of Alfred and what is now called Alfred Gore. Alfred was a part of the town of Sanford, Maine, until 1794, when it became a separate town. The shape of Alfred was then pointed at the north and even called a "triangle" in early deeds. We know that the Russells owned land in Massabesick "by the highway and land of John Bean," as this land was described in Joseph, Sr. and Abigail's deed to their daughter, Sarah in 1783. (YD, 50:224).

By 4 January 1845, Joshua Russell, a son of Joseph, Jr. and grandson of Joseph, Sr. and Abigail Russell, gathered signatures to a petition to annex his land to the town of Alfred. Basically the petitioners described the difficulties of being citizens of Waterboro, given their location and the lack of roads to the center of Waterboro. The petition requested a new boundary, using part of the middle branch of the Mousam River to separate the towns. The petition was also signed by Mary Russell, the widow of Joshua's brother, David, and four others. It was unsuccessful until the following year the petitioners returned with 47 signatures and in 1847, the new boundary line was established and the Russell homesteads became a part of Alfred. (Research by Edward Cook of Shapleigh and his brother John of Alfred who now in 2004 lives in the original home of Joseph and Abigail Towle Russell),

Mary's father, Joseph Russell would have been turning 45 in 1755 and Aphia, 43. Mary had already married in 1794 and was in the James Bean household in Alfred. It appears possible that by 1810 the elder Joseph had moved to Alfred too and the Joseph Russell in 1810 Waterboro was Mary's brother, since there is no mark for a female over 45 in the Joseph Russell household of 1810.
