  1. Hi,
    I’m looking for my Call ancestors. He and his family lived on Swan Island, but I believe they are buried in Dresden.
    I’m looking for Samuel Call born about 1822 died Oct. 2 1909 in Perkins Maine.
    Would you happen to know if he would be buried in one of the cemeteries in Dresden?

  2. I live in front of the Pine Grove Cemetery off Rt 127. I believe there is a Samuel Call either to the right as you enter or at the tip-top middle. That’s where most of the Call’s are. I can’t confirm because this is definately not walking weather up here.(below zero with a bitter wind chill and snowed in roads Brrr) Hope this helps.
    I was president of the cemetery association for a year and it’s a common name here./N
