Miniature of Bingham Purchase
Bingham Purchase
In the 1780s and 1790s, Massachusetts wanted to sell off large tracts of land in Maine. William Bingham, a wealthy man from Philadelphia, managed to buy these two large tracts totaling nearly 2 million acres. The documents in this collection show the initial agreements and then deeds granting the land to Bingham in 1793.
