13927 | Eldering Cottage Frank Wells Ramseyer Cottage |
|
|
|
| "Eldering" was the summer home of Frank Wells and Linda Chapin Marcus Ramseyer. 1937 - Linda Chapin Marcus, daughter of Dorothy's brother, William Elder Marcus, Jr. and her husband, Frank Ramseyer Jr. bought a strip of six acres next to Dorothy's "High Tide" on Seawall Road, from Captain Hiram S. Hadlock and built their summer house, "Eldering." The name was partly in honor of Frank's descent from Elder Brewster of the Mayflower and partly from the name, Elder, in Linda's family. Frank W. Ramseyer designed the house, which was built by Sylvester Dorr. In about 1960 Hiram Hadlock's granddaughter, Eleanor M. Hadlock Gilley, sold another eleven acres to the Ramseyers, thus completing the present property. In 1942 an east wing was added to the house by Mr. Dorr and in 1964 a south ell, designed by Frank Ramseyer and built by Maurice Norwood. Frank's daughters, Helene Ramseyer Dickel and Lin Ramseyer Clayberg, added a garage of their design to the property. | Eldering Cottage Frank Wells Ramseyer Cottage Description: "Eldering" was the summer home of Frank Wells and Linda Chapin Marcus Ramseyer. 1937 - Linda Chapin Marcus, daughter of Dorothy's brother, William Elder Marcus, Jr. and her husband, Frank Ramseyer Jr. bought a strip of six acres next to Dorothy's "High Tide" on Seawall Road, from Captain Hiram S.

| "The Spahr house, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Lee Spahr of Haverford, Pa., and built for them by R. M. Norwood in 1932, is on a site where formerly two summer hotels have stood, both being destroyed by fire. The first one was built by Sans Stanley about 1875 and was very popular as a summer hotel and patronized by many Harvard professors. It was burned July 10, 1884. Mr. Stanley built another and larger hotel on the same site and this was burned March 18, 1927. A few years later the land was sold to Mr. Spahr, who also owns one of the small cottages nearby which is used as a guest house." -- “Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine” by Mrs. Seth S.
