Hello. My name is Sally Foster from Solon, Maine. My furthest back ancestor JOHN A. TUSCAN was buried in Gilman Cemetary in Bingham, Maine in 1862! He was my 3rd gr. grand father. His wife Nancy Merrow Tuscan was buried there beside him in 1864.
I have been trying very hard to find any information about John and Nancy, their parents.. who they were, where they came from?? New Hampshire, Massachusetts?? Pennsylvania?? Where?
There are many Gilman's buried in the Gilman Cemetary. I am writing to see if any of you may have information about the Tuscan family and if maybe the Tuscan's married a Gilman. As they all must have lived very near to one another out near that cemetery in Bingham. If you have any information, please contact me at either saltuscanfoster@yahoo.com or mikesalfoster@yahoo.com I have found a Joseph Tuscan mentioned in the Penn. Militia! Could our families be connected? Can anyone give me any information. I have hit a brick wall. Thank you for your time. Respectfully to you all.. Sally Foster.. Solon
