Aroostook War (Maine) History and Roster

Description (from source site)
In the spring of 1839 the simmering border dispute between the United States and Britain in northern Maine erupted into armed conflict. This database is a brief history of the war and listing of American men who served in the Aroostook War. Each entry provides the volunteer's name, rank, enlistment date, and date of discharge. Additionally, locations of enlistment and discharge are included. Originally published in 1903, it contains the names of over 3,000 men. For researchers of early Maine history and ancestors, this can be an illuminating and interesting database.
