If you get his marriage record from the Maine State Archives it will most likely have his place of birth, parent names, parents place of birth and residence.I believe I see his marriage listed on the Maine archives search engine even though some of the info doesn't match what you have.The link for the archives with the search engine and info on how to order a copy of a record (usually only 6 dollars):
http://www.maine.gov/sos/arc/http://www.maine.gov/sos/arc/
Found at that site were:
bride:HYER FRANCES H residence:LEWISTON, ME groom:BASSETT CECIL S residence:LEWISTON, MEdate married:06-15-1946
The last name & initial for Frances doesn't match what you have, but maybe she was married once before and the middle initial could be transcribed incorrectly.Even if this is a totally different Frances it's likely Cecil Bassett is the same one you are looking for (it's not a common name) and his info from the marriage record could help you.Her marriage to Roy is on the archives site also:
TAYLOR FRANCES V BOWDOINHAM, ME ROY ROBERT R BOWDOINHAM, ME 7802085 04-15-1978
I find it hard to believe she could have had a son with Mr Roy if they married in 1978.She would have been too old. Did that information come from a reliable source?
