INTRODUCTION TO ANCHOR PAGE

Chebeague is and has been the"anchor" for so many families. Whether you are a year-round or summer person, Chebeague seems to create roots for everyone. Wherever anyone goes or lives, they always seem to maintain ties to the Island. My hope for this page is to have a place on the internet where all Chebeaguer's will feel at home. These pages are best viewed with Netscape if you have it. Starting today 5/9/98 any new links I add or change will be dated on this page with the exception of ISLAND NEWS, EMAIL AND PEOPLE.

This page is always under construction and will be updated and worked on regularly. If you would like your business, homepage, or email address included please contact me. I love getting comments and ideas as well as submissions so please feel free to contact me via Email at the following address. : bjohnson@nlis.net or call at (207) 846-4850

They have scanned telephone books from everywhere in the US - some names can be hard to find because of abbreviations used or the books they used were outdated. This list has helped me many times!

SEARCH SITES

You are the person to access this page since May 2, 1996 (Seems like a lot? Probably most are me and other links checking and making changes!) Or if you access the page through the new address chebeague.org then it's the number since May 5, 1999 - so I guess you just add the two?
