Guest book from Hamor Tea House 1945
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Book, Guests book inscribed inside front cover "Alice / from / Sadie & John / Oct. 25 / [19]39", given presumably by John & Sadie Hamor, owners of the Hamor Tea House, to "Alice"; guest entries seem to all be written in the same hand - probably Alice's; entries begin 1 June [19]45 with Seth Rice, and end 18 Oct [19]45 with Louise Spurling; most entries are local island folks; most days have only 1 to 3 entries - this seems quite a low number for a restaurant to stay in business; this could be a guest book for Alice's private home [show more]
