I-Search

In hoping that I would be able to obtain some more information, friday after class I took another trip to the Bangor Room at the Bangor Public Library - not only was I going for more information, but I was also going to obtain the references for my works cited page. I not only found all my references and documented them properly - I found some more information.

I found a map of Bangor from 1865 - it was old and had a lot of stains on it - HOWEVER, I found the first recorded person to own the land that I live on today - his name was Charles Dolan. I am unsure if the house that I live in was built by him, however, I did find that Charles Dolan was quite the businessman. He was a grocer, but also owned a saloons which were located on #1 Main Street and the corner of Broad Street and Union (wherever that is). He also owned a residence on Second Street. I am so excited. Finally, some more information I can include in my I-Search to make it more complete.
