Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Oral history. These two interviews with lifelong GCI resident Gaile Colby were conducted by Phil Whitney and Josh Hastings in July 2018. They mostly discuss houses along The Lane, Harding Point, Heliker-Lahotan and Jimmies Point Road. Arvard helped a lot with certain houses on Harding Point Road and certain houses on The Lane in the second interview. Two sessions 7/22/18 and 7/29/18. Several segments of the July 29 interview were transcribed 2018 and include the visit of Vice President Nelson Rockefeller to the Cranberry Club on GCI; the wakes of Rena Bunker Willis' widow (1940) and Henry Bunker (1941) held in the Richman house; the 1961 fire at the Sherman house. The MP3 Sound recordings are very good. See GCIHS-NAS\video\2018. (Note: photo used here is from the 2009 Portrait Project by Becky Buyers-Basso (2013.238.1933), not these 2018 interviews.)
