Hello,
I am looking for a Samuel Stearns who married a Susana Harris.  They had a 
son named Absalom Stearns.  Absalom is my great grandfather.  Absalom Stearns 
married a Biancy Laurette Jewell on September 25, 1852 in Stoneham, MAINE.  I 
cannot find any information on his parents.  Have you ever came across any of 
these names in your research.  I noticed you had some of the same areas I am 
researching. 
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you, 
Nancy Snape
