From The Lincoln County News Online (Tuesday, October 1, 2013), a reprint of an article dated 12/31/2008, “Nobleboro Cemeteries, Trask/Maddox Cemetery, compiled by Laurie McBurnie:
“The Trask/Maddox Cemetery, GR-49 (gravestone record), is located along Lower Cross Road in Nobleboro, across the road from and about midway between the old homes of Rev. Enos Trask and Caleb Maddox.
“Nearby were also the homes of Richard Tobin and Deacon Byron Fossett, both men also being buried in this cemetery. The cemetery, encompassed by a stonewall, is well cared for and is the final resting spot for five veterans.
“The focus of the Trask/Maddox Cemetery is the large, red stone monument of the Trask family.
“Here is buried Rev. Enos S. Trask (1795-1880, 84 years old) who was the second great minister of the Nobleboro Baptist Church. His inscription reads, "A faithful minister of our Lord Jesus Christ from 1826-1880."
“His wife Sally Haggett Trask (1800-1884, 84 years old.), whom he first met while she was churning butter in front of her home in Edgecomb, is also buried here. The Rev. Trask was a veteran of the War of 1812 and helped build the old "Trask Meeting House" in Jefferson, where he lived for a portion of his life.”
