|  Rear view of Preble House with William Pitt Preble and two women Great Cranberry Island Historical Society Description: Photo, ca. 1895, rear view of the Preble House showing William Pitt Preble (1811-1905) with two women. The woman on the left could be Preble's second wife, Jane Matilda Hadlock Sanford Preble (1826-1898). The house was built by Captain Samuel Hadlock, Jr. and Samuel Spurling ca. 1827, and was occupied by Hadlocks and Prebles related through marriage or blood for its first century. The house and property have expanded and contracted over the course of its nearly 200 years. It was restored in the late 1940s and stands today as one of the largest and most historic homes on Great Cranberry Island. It was the boyhood home of Civil War General Andrew Barclay Spurling who was born across the street in the Freeman house. [show more] | ||

|  Letters from Emily Gilley to Walter and Eliza Towse Great Cranberry Island Historical Society Description: Letters. Nine letters from Emily S. Gilley, (born 14 May 1840 at Cranberry Isles to Elisha B. Gilley (1807-1901) and Hannah Manchester Stanley (1804-1880)). The letters were written to the donor's great-grandfather, Walter William Towse and his sister, Eliza. Walter Towse was born in Lubec, ME, in 1840. The first letter is addressed to Walter Towse's sister, Eliz, in 1864. The rest are to Walter from 1866 to 1878 while he was in Denver, Nebraska City, Omaha, and elsewhere. Emily was from Cranberry Isles and lived in Boston part of the year; she worked in the cotton mills, and married an Easterbrook, from Sackville. The donor states "Eliza must have sent the first letter on to her brother, for it was included in the packet he kept in a leather wallet that managed to be handed down in the family. Eunice Durham gave them to me." (Transcripts of letters were made by the donor and sent via email to GCIHS in 2008 along with a history of the correspondence. The letters were mailed to GCIHS inside the leather wallet.) Donor later sent three scanned photos of Walter Towse (B), (C), and (D). [show more] | ||
