James is buried on his former farm that he sold to the Goudie Family where he reserved a polt of land 1 rod square in which are 4 graves in Bristol, ME. It is located above the farm house towards Damariscotta and east of the 1950 gravel pit that was there.
Upon visiting this area we found 3 adult graves an 2 children's; indicating that he was buried here also. This is in the pasture near the road and above the house and toward Damariscotta and back of the present gravel pit (as of 1950).

James Curtis was a master shipbuilder by trade in Bristol, ME and the vacinity. Deacon James was also a decided religious man and was quite set in his views. He was brought up in Pembroke, MA, as a hard shell Baptist which term perfectly describes his religion and character.
