  • Southwest Harbor
  • 338 Main Street
Eleanor Hadlock Gilley, born at Seawall, talks about growing up on the island and her family's history in the area. She walked to school and says it wasn't too bad until she had to go to Southwest Harbor for high school; she remembers getting caught in a blizzard in during a commute in 1922. She stopped at a friends home in Manset and was stuck for two days. Growing up, her father had a penchant for travelling and the family often lost track of him. After high school, Eleanor would go on to teach in the area, spending a total of seventeen years between Trenton, Tremont, and Southwest Harbor. Her husband, who she met in high school, was a lifelong basketball fan and worked for the Hinckley company as a painter. Her grandmother worked in the Manset hotels doing laundry. She also talks about her great-great grandfather who was married to "The Prussian Lady" and would later die at sea. She tells stories from the Great Depression and eating "salmon loaf," as it was the only food available.

David Spurling interviews Irma Gott and discusses her parents. Earl Williams Gott was her father, and her mother came to Southwest Harbor one summer to work in the sardine factory and never got around to leaving. Irma was married three times, outlived them all, and eventually changed back to her maiden name. After high school, she went right to work at the post office where her father was the Postmaster. After her father passed away, she took over as Postmaster and retired in 1975. She talks about her pets that keep her busy in retirement-cats and dogs and birds. During the Great Depression she learned to play the piano, and later the organ. She would play at churches and local events, and even for the USO during World War Two. Music was a big theme for her, as her father and uncles played in the Southwest Harbor town band who played at the Blue Hill Fair, 4th of July events, and the retirement of steamship "JT Morris"

Esther Rodick interviews Ruth Grindle who talks about her life in Southwest Harbor. Neither of her parents were originally from the area, but her father moved to Bar Harbor to work in a jewelry story before moving to Southwest Harbor to open his own store. In 1921, he became the town Postmaster, but was dismissed in 1933 when FDR was elected-back then, the Postmaster was tied to the political party in power. Ruth talks about how she loved watching the JT Morris steamship come to town and seeing the workers running on and off with the freight. She remembers fires in town, and horse stable, and ice storage. Ruth met her husband at Echo Lake, where she went for recreation. She worked at the Dirigo Hotel and her husband worked as a boatbuilder. After recovering from Guillan-Barre syndrome, the two opened a store in the 1950s which sold a wide variety of things. Finally, she tells of how she finagled her way into meeting FDR when he visited Southwest Harbor.

Esther Rodick interviews Henry and Elizabeth Guthrie. Originally, the couple lived together in New York City where Henry worked as a lawyer at a very big firm. They came to MDI in 1933 after being invited to the house party of a friend, and soon began coming regularly. They usually chartered a boat from Farnham Butler, but eventually bought the boat "Snowflake" outright after enjoying it so much. Elizabeth recalled a conversation between Farnham Butler and Henry Hinckley about the future of boatbuilding. She also talks about taking the "Bar Harbor Express," a train from Washington D.C. up to a ferry which would complete the journey to Bar Harbor. The Guthries were always just summer people, but felt that they belonged in Southwest Harbor and were very complimentary of the people they met in town. They talk about how they would spend time in SWH every summer because of the great dancing and restaurants. She talks about sailing up and down the coast of Maine, her love of ecology, donating land to the local college for research and studies, and their extensive travelling. They took the first passenger ship to England after World War Two ended. She finishes by telling a story of a passenger fixing a Douglass DC-3 plane with a screwdriver; he was an expert mechanic after working on them during World War Two.
