Wilfred Bunker and Clarence Beal aboard the Silas McClune
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Photo, b&w snapshot, Wilfred Bunker (looking up) and Clarence Beal on board their lobster smack, Silas McClune. Per Ralph Stanley August 2016: The Silas McClune was built for the A. C. McClune Co. in Rockland. They were lobster dealers. Beal & Bunker bought the boat in the 1950s. They had the wet wells plugged and used it as a freight boat. They caught hake fish at GCI and took it to Vinalhaven for sale. Buster Rice was the captain. Beal & Bunker sold the boat to Arnold Allen who had a seining outfit. Ralph believes the boat went ashore and might be beneath the sewer plant in Southwest Harbor. (See also 2018.416.2824C.) [show more]

Portrait of person in green jacket (perhaps Charles Gott)
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Portrait. Large framed oval portrait of a man (or woman) in green jacket. Could be Charles Gott, possibly Lulu (Steele) Alley's husband at one time. Oval wood and bubble glass, perhaps a 'tiger wood' frame. On reverse in pencil script: "5713 Mr. Chas. Gott, Bar Harbor, ME". Gaile Colby recalled some information about Mr. Steele's old place. " A camp across from Polly Bunker's burned down after a lot of use. Louis Bracy was born in that house. It was an outhouse from the school originally and Sadie brought it down and added it to the 'camp'. Arthur built the replacement to the shack late 1960s 1970s. Arthur lived in the old shack, too. Sadie gave it to Madeleine, and Madeleine and Frank lived in it. Everyone lived in it. Liza and Pink's daughter, Elma, lived in it. Jeanne was her sister. Jeanne Start is who Lou Millar bought her house from. This portrait is one of several items from donors in summer 2016 prior to selling their house on The Lane, GCI. Many items pertain to Lulu Alley family. Items were in the house when donor's parents, June and Ed Sampson, bought the house from Lulu in November 1969. The four Sampson children were added to the deed in 1995. Dan and Maia bought the house from Maia’s siblings in 2002 and sold it in 2016. The house was built for Lulu Steele when she married Lewis Alley 1914(?); Lulu died in 2004. House is said to be a ca. 1914 Sears Roebuck modular home, similar to several others on GCI. The garage on the property was built by Mike Westphal in the 1980s. Big cook stove in kitchen is original. It was the only heat and only stove in the house originally. Rocking chair in house is original. Kitchen cabinetry on right of sink is original. Woodstove in the living room is 1973. [show more]
