Our Research Center is visited by a wide variety of patrons.
We have vast holdings for genealogists. We have historical
records and early photographs for students looking for historical
information. Students use our records to find early
town maps and ancestral images. We have an amazing variety
of files and folders. Our photograph collection covers years
of Dixfield growth and change. Copies suitable for framing
may be ordered of any of our prints through our Photograph Album. Come and visit. There is something here to amaze everyone.
We have over 8,000 names in our database of people that were born, lived and/or died in Dixfield and Mexico, Maine, from the date of the first settlers. If you are looking for information, e-mail Jane at janecantrell@me.com and she will research and e-mail the information to you for FREE.

Of course, there are many other resources in DHS’s
Research Center that often prove useful to the researcher.
A census record from the mid-19th century might tell you where
your relatives lived and even their occupations. There are probate
records and land deeds as well as obituaries and hundreds
of photographs and scrapbook articles. Contact us or stop in for a visit to see
if DHS’s
Research Center has the resource you need!
