"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.

"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 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.
