The earliest court records from the state of Maine stretch back to the colonial era when it was part of Massachusetts until 1820. Probate and land court cases document early settlers and maritime trade disputes. Town and county courts recorded civil disputes, guardianships, and estate settlements. The Maine State Archives and county registries house these vital records, aiding family historians in tracing their New England ancestry.
