"Inscription on the back of the photograph: ""E.F. Ward This is A Picture of my Family Taken, June 14th 1906, at my home in East Surry. The girls were all Single at that time. Compliment of Mr. & Mrs. Hermon N. Treworgy, Ellsworth, Maine."" Herman Newell Treworgy (1852-1926), a carpenter, was born on May 26, 1852 to Samuel Newell and Sarah Jane (Flood) Treworgy in Surry, Maine. Herman married Adeline “Addie” L. Smith (1854-c.1925) on June 12, 1876. The Treworgys were from Surry and lived there off and on. In 1900 they lived on Hancock Street in Ellsworth and lived there in 1920 on Water Street. The Treworgys are shown with four daughters, but researchers have found information on only three: Sarah J. Treworgy was born in July 1879. She married Albert G. Moon, who worked in a livery stable, on October 25, 1899. Sarah and Albert Moon lived with Sarah’s parents in Ellsworth in 1900. Marianna J. Treworgy was born in June 1882. She worked in a shoe factory and married Walter J. Clark Jr., a printer, on November 2, 1904. Carrie B. Treworgy was born on May 2, 1890. She worked as a housekeeper in Gardiner, Maine, in 1910 and then married Herbert R. Fuller on June 20, 1912. At the time of her marriage she worked in a shoe factory. Herbert was a machinist. Herman says that all the girls were single when the photograph was taken, but Sarah and Marianna were definitely married on the dates shown above. Perhaps he was mistaken about the date of the photograph, which was obviously taken several years before he gave it to E.F. Ward. Herman Newell Treworgy died on June 22, 1926 in Bangor, Maine. Adeline “Addie” L. (Smith) Treworgy died between 1920 and 1930. One can assume, from available information, that the family in the photograph was – from left to right: Probably Marianna J. Treworgy (1882-?) – later Mrs. Walter J. Clark Jr. – standing at left Adeline “Addie” L. (Smith) Treworgy (1854-c. 1925), Mrs. Herbert Newell Treworgy - seated Sarah J.

  • Ellsworth ME
"Charles E. ""Charlie"" Wakefield (1908-1986) was born and died in Cherryfield, the ""Blueberry Capital of the World,"" a town in Washington County, Maine, on the Narraguagus River. Charlie played his saxophone at many Mount Desert Island celebrations of his time and was the author of ""Trademark: Music - A Treasury of Downeast Maine Musical History"" - 1978. The Charles Wakefield Memorial Bandstand in Bandstand Park on Main Street next to the Legion Hall in the Cherryfield Historic District is named in his honor. The NRHP number for the Cherryfield Historic District - site of the bandstand is 90001467. ""Without a doubt, Charlie [Wakefield] is the most versitile [Sic] musician I have ever worked with. Many musicians play several instruments but never really excell in any one. This was never the case with Charlie. I used to get the biggest kick out of calling him to play a job, he would always ask me what chair I wanted him to work, sax, trombone, piano or just name it and Charlie could handle it. If we were playing a combo job he always brought a couple extra instruments along just in case, maybe the valve trombone or the soprano sax. I remember many times I have been asked what instrument Charlie played, all I could say, he plays them all.."" - ""Memoirs of a Dance Band"" by Charlie [Charles H.] Bennett. Privately printed, p. 73-75. This is just a small part of what Charlie Bennett says in his pamphlet about Charlie Wakefield."

Annie Downs Clark is in the center - just left of doorway. The sign on the building announcing “Beautiful Stereopticon Views” does not refer to stereograph or stereoscopic views, viewed through a viewer held in one’s hand. "Beautiful Stereopticon Views" - "The word "stereopticon" is frequently confused with "stereograph" and "stereoscope," but has nothing to do with either. The "Stereopticon" was a single lensed device to project lantern slides - transparent pictures on glass used for public lectures - we know it as a "slide show" in the Kodachrome era. The powerful light to project the image was generated by the same type of gas as miners used for their lamps. The event being advertised was an educational event probably showing slides of exotic places that most people from Southwest Harbor would never see except in pictures." - Weston J. Naef - August 2008.
