Horace Bragdon

Hi Cheryl
I too am trying to track down Horace C. Bragdon as he is one of my ancestors too.
I found this bit of information on him here: http://books.google.com/books?id=1tAUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA102&lpg=PA102&dq=Horace+Bragdon&source=bl&ots=ydMQ7es1Uc&sig=h5Mj1-F1OmpqyVy5-IcSG8iaehY&hl=en&ei=hKgJS5K6AcO7lAfW-a2FBA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CAoQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=Horace%20Bragdon&f=false

According to this source, he was born on the day you noted near Dexter and moved up to Aroostook County (Ashland) when he was 18. It would appear that the Dexter area is in fact his birthplace, but I cannot his immediate relatives that connect him to Arthur Bragdon, (1598 England - 1678 York Maine)although he is listed in this source as a descendant. I am not sure whether Arthur( b 1620) or Thomas (b 1625) is the line to chase to find Horace's father's name. Please let me know if you find anything.
