Description
School Agents’ Census Returns, Cumberland, Maine, 1884 was compiled in April 1884 by the school agents of the Town of Cumberland. Sections 60 and 61 of Chapter 11 of the Maine Revised Statutes, amended by an act approved Feb. 23, 1876, required school agents to present to the Assessors and Superintending School Committee in the month of April a certified list of the district’s “children between four and twenty-one years of age, as they existed on the first day of said month, exclusive of those coming from other places, where they belong, to attend any college or academy, or to labor in any factory therein.” This volume contains the names and ages of the scholars in District 1 (Cumberland Foreside), District 2 (Tuttle Road/Middle Road), District 3 (Cumberland Center), District 7 (Winn Road), District 8 (Chebeague Island West End), and District 9 (Chebeague Island East End).
