This is an original ledger book that came from a general store located near the towns of Orono, Lagrange, and Howland in Penobscot County, Maine. I do not know the name of the store or its exact location but some of the people listed in the ledger have addresses with their entries. The towns listed are Orono, Lagrange and Howland.

The ledger book is a fantastic genealogy resource for this area of Maine. It contains 373 pages starting in July 1923 and ending in Aug 1927. The entries contain the names of hundreds of local people and list what they bought and how much they paid for the goods. It's a fascinating glimpse into the daily lives of our ancestors!

The original scanned ledger pages are also on file; a full page-by-page transcription has not yet been done.
