| 10189 | Ralph Warren Stanley Looking at Arno Preston Stanley's Derelict Boat Engine |
|
|
|
|
| Ralph Stanley and Charles B. Morrill went out to the Cranberry Isles in Ralph's boat, "Seven Sisters", on October 29, 2009 to photograph the boiler for the story in SWHPL 9935. While searching for the rock they came across this old 2 cycle, 2 cylinder Knox engine. Ralph remembered that the engine, an old "hand cranker, had originally belonged to his grandfather, Arno Preston Stanley (1865-1937). He never did anything with it. Ralph considered putting it in his first boat, but it was too heavy. The engine lay on the wharf for years and when the wharf was blew down in a storm c. 1978 the workers tossed it, or it fell, onto the rocks below where it is today. "The Boiler" started out at the end of Fish Point on Great Cranberry. Ralph is standing near the point of the arrow on the map where the boiler is now. The blue house in the background of the photograph was Charles "Peter" Emery Richardson's boat house. Peter was born to Meltiah Jordan and Mary Catherine "Carrie" Stanley Richardson on January 14, 1885. Peter married Nellie G. Curley who was born in 1884 and died in 1957. Peter died on July 14, 1971. |

| Acadia National Park Ethnographic Overview and Assessment Volume 1 and Volume 2 This two-volume historical-ethnographic overview of Acadia National Park spans almost 500 years and covers a wide coastal stretch between Penobscot and Gouldsboro Bays – and sometimes much beyond. Such breadth of coverage is necessary in order to take in the park’s center piece on Mount Desert Island, plus Isle au Haut and Schoodic Peninsula, along with various land holding arrangements (including easements) on numerous offshore sea-islands in this area.1 The study explores the shifting but ongoing relationship between this habitat and Wabanaki peoples – a group of northeastern Algonquianspeaking ethnic groups or tribal nations today distinguished as the Abenaki, Maliseet, Mi'kmaq, Passamaquoddy and Penobscot. |

| 6023 | John Melbourne Rich House I in 2004 |
|
|
|
|
|
| The house was built by John "Talking John" Melbourne Rich, the first of his three houses. John owed his Uncle Jonathan Rich (1836-1907) a sum of money, so he swapped this Tremont house for Jonathan's older less valuable Richtown house. Emily (Rich) Trask (1884-1981), John Melbourne Rich's daughter, said in a 1975 interview that she was born in the house, "in that back bedroom up there… That was a big place. It was different from these days…it had a piazza clean around it and round the front. Father was great on building big places but he got in debt so much that he had to give up and go over to Richville [Richtown] and live." The main house, minus barn and ell, still exists in 2016, although covered in green asbestos shingles. The house was originally painted a cream color with brown trim. It sits back from the road just before the Tremont Congregational Church. After Jonathan Rich's death in 1907 his widow, Roseanna B. (Dix) Rich sold the house to Joseph E. Wooster. Roseanna built a house on the water opposite. A later owner, Alvah Dalton Rich, Sr.'s widow, Evelyn Frances (Pomroy) Rich's second husband, Charles Edwin Hamblen, tore off the barn and ell during the depression to save money on taxes. The house had no electricity until 1942. |
