School photo ca. 1892
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
A. Photo, black and white, wood and glass frame. School children standing outside the old school house on schoolhouse hill ca. 1892 or 1893. (This old school house is now Malcolm Donald's house on Cranberry Road across from the GCIHS.) Donor related, "This picture was found behind the eaves of an upstairs closet where it had no doubt accidentally fallen many decades ago. Our house was formerly owned by Eber Spurling. The names of the people are written (in good handwriting!) by pencil, as follows, on the back of the picture frame. It would be interesting if those with local knowledge could calculate the approximate year of this photograph, and recall the married names of the girls and young women in the picture." . Stored with a booklet of the scanned photographs printed with names of individuals overlaid. B. Inscription on back of frame reads - "Back row left to right: 1. Lena Ladd, 2. Miss Rich - teacher, 3. Millicent Harding - Frank Bunker, 4. Sadie Harding, 5. Brother Spurling, 6. Sadie Bunker, 7. Lena Spurling, 8. Annie Bunker, 9. Millard Spurling, 10. Perly Stanley, 11. Elma (or Elna?) Stanley, 12.
