re: 18-year-old guy from Maine places an ad looking for a wife in 1865.

My great great grandfather in South Dakota took out an ad looking for a wife after he was widowed later in life. There were two responses and he choose the first one. After being around her for a while he realized she was an alcoholic so he dumped her and settled with the second until his death.

He must have been ugly as shite or tarded up to have to put such a transactional ad in the paper for a wife when men were in such short supply
I think people in general were scarce in Aroostook County. Easily the most isolated place on the East Coast.

I just looked up where it is
He probably already knew every single woman for miles around, could have just printed the ad and rode around handing it out
My guess is since it is so dowery oriented and honest it was probably written for men with daughters, not single women
Let’s make a deal for your daughter

Was probably related to all of them.
I'd wager that was in a Portland/Bangor newspaper, if not somewhere further south.

But could he take her at her worst so he would deserve her at her best?

As they say now, he "had his own everything".

Just itemize everything in the ad and divide by two.

Good set of teeth. That’s priceless. At 18 no less.

Dude probably survives the Civil War and then immediately puts out an ad in the paper for a wife. Props to him.

At least he is looking for someone of the female persuasion
