Maine, during the Revolutionary war,- furnished men on the quota of Massachusetts for which the state has not as yet had full credit. One-ninth of the soldiers of the mother state were from Maine and they numbered over ten thou- sand men. Maine soldiers were at Bunker Hill and the intervening battles to Yorktown, and probably as large a proportion of our population are descended from Revolu- tionary patriots as any state in the Union. Our soldiers honored our history, and that they might never be for- gotten, the Maine Society of the Sons of the American Revolution was organized. The Society already has done a notable work. It has published the history of four of our regiments, and three towns, at least, have histories of that period in printed form, while all our recent town his- tories have devoted much space to the events of those times. Much valuable information has been given to the public through the daily and weekly press, whereby thou- sands of names have been recorded which might otherwise have been lost. The interest created has stimulated very much the study of family history, and because of the demands made upon them our public libraries have added many valuable publications relating to the Revolutionary war. Altogether the members of the Maine Society have cause for gratification because of the work accomplished during the eleven years of its existence. There is still much left undone. We have in preparation a register of 6 SONS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION. the location of the graves of the patriots of the Revolution who were buried in our state, also of the inscriptions on the monuments of Revolutionary soldiers, and assistance is desired that this register may be made as complete as possible.
