Description: “At the head of the cove a high bridge is crossed, and, turning to the right, the Lake comes in full view. At this place there are a few houses, yet the general appearance of things is rather sleepy. There is good fishing to be had, and trout and perch are usually ready for the hook.” - Rambles in Mount Desert With Sketches of Travel on The New-England Coast by B.F. DeCosta, p. 105 - 1871 The mill at Seal Cove was first owned by Abraham Reed. “Prudence Somes, born 23 June 1761, Gloucester, Massachusetts. She was fifteen years old when Governor Bernard visited their home. She married Abraham Reed, who was from Sedgwick, Massachusetts, and owned a lot of land on the western side of Mt. Desert, built a house and a mill, which he later sold to William Heath.” – “Pansy Nelle Gray: Her Gray, Jones and Allied Families” by Ilona Hinrichs Stone, p. 217 – 2003. [show more]
