Report on 19th-century concealed shoes and Cape Houses
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Houses. Architectural and folk history. This updated 2018 report of investigation summarizes 2013-2017 research into nine Cape-style houses spawned by the 2013 discovery and repatriation of four ca. 1820-1830s shoes concealed in the chimney wall of the parsonage house of the Great Cranberry Congregational Church. The 2014 and 2018 revised report was submitted to the Maine Historic Preservation Commission, Acadia NPS, and GCIHS. Revised version is twenty-two pages with photos and bibliography as of January 18, 2018, and includes findings of a 2015 dendrochronology project. This study of the parsonage Cape-style house with its neighboring Cape-style houses and the separate 2013 study of the nearby ca. 1826 Preble house documents a cluster of historic island houses on the verge of becoming unrecognizable through remodeling. Research reveals folk practices, the oeuvre of local 19th-century house builders; Cape-style design innovations; granite and lumber sources; dendrochronology study; and early 19th-century Bulger and Spurling family histories. One of the cape houses was the birthplace of Civil War Medal of Honor General Andrew Barclay Spurling.; the Preble House was his boyhood home. See also concealed shoe research: 2013.252.1979.

Genealogy. The Stanleys of the Cranberry Islands, Genealogical Notes of William Otis Sawtelle with an Index by Hugh L. Dwelley, Islesford Historical Society Transcription, 1996. Volume 1: Little Cranberry Island, Maine, 325 pages. Volume 2: Great Cranberry Island, Maine, 214 pages. Volume 3: Mount Desert Island, Maine, 170 pages. Volume 4: Swans Island, Maine, 137 pages. Photocopies of extensive genealogical records of the Stanley family and their collaterals compiled by William Otis Sawtelle, with a 13-page introduction and index by Hugh Dwelley in 1996. Dwelley states: "This extensive genealogical record of the Stanley family is written largely in the hand of Professor William Otis Sawtelle. It appears to have been prepared mostly during the first decade of the 20th century. Notes such as "Living in ____1906", etc. appear on several of the records. There is a little data from 1920s and later, but it has usually been added in another hand. Professor Sawtelle fell ill in 1936 and died in 1939." Other family names appearing in this genealogy: Spurling, Harding, Bunker, Bulger, Richardson, Parsons, Hamor, Rosebrook, Rinaldo, Workman, Steele, Worcester, Joy, Trussell, Preble, Fernald, Moore, Wilson, Ash, Gilley, Kingsbury, Stephens, Holmes, Lawry, Lancaster, Sprague, Bridges, Jordan, Rea, Ladd, Phippen, Hodgkins, Davis, Anderson, Newman, Somes, Sawyer, Wedge, Whitmore, Turner, Roberts, Paine, Frazier, Bucklin, Peckham, Walls, Richardson, Frisbee, Roix, Story, Buckmore, Bowden, Rich, Lancaster, Coleman, Bridges, Joyce, Stewart, Stinson, Holbrook, Dunham, Gott, Smith, Kent, Stockbridge,and Mcallen.
