New Brunswick Provincial Archives - http://www.gov.nb.ca/supply/archives/ENGLISHhttp://www.gov.nb.ca/supply/archives/ENGLISH - go to the NB county you are researching, and you will have the records the archives have (and can lend) on this county, including birth, marriages, marriage bonds, deaths, probate records, wills, etc. Contact your local library and ask them if they can order the microfilms from the NB archives. This site also has LINKS to:
The National Archives of Ireland
Public Record Office of Northern Ireland

Address: Charlotte County Historical Society, P.O. Box 83, St. Andrews, NBCANADAE0G 2X0. This is the NB county right next to Washington County, Maine. Charlotte County Archives in Saint Andrews, NB has copies of mostly all St. George cemeteries. They would probably look up what you wanted to know. As they operate on a shoestring budget, a donation to cover copying and postage would probably be welcome.
