Detail from a sketch by Champlain on his map depicting a 1609 battle between the Iroquois and Algonquian tribes near Lake Champlain. From Champlain's 1613 "Voyages." This image of him is considered to be the only "authentic" depiction of Samuel as it is contemporary to him and, of course, drawn by him.

Date: Circa 1908 Media: Tinted collotype Title: Landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth 1620 from the Mayflower Subject: Pilgrim Shallop Publisher: Published in Germany for G.W. Morris, Portland, Maine Postage: 1¢ for United States and Island Possessions, Cuba, Canada and Mexico, 2¢ for foreign. Number: 84972 Addressed to Mrs. Eliza S. Gott, McKinley, Maine, Box 22. Front message: "Send me a postcard from Grace E. Gott" Postcard from Grace E. Gott (1896-1920) to her grandmother, Eliza Sawyer Butler, Mrs. Israel Gott (1847-1924) Grace E. Gott married Charles Lewellyn McKay on December 16, 1915. She signed the postcard as Grace E. Gott so archivists conclude that it was sent before that date. Judging by her handwriting, it is probable that she wrote the card c. 1908-1910. G.W. Morris printed their tinted collotype postcards in Germany in the early years of their existence (1901-1922). Archivists have therefore date the postcard as c. 1908.

Harriet is the older woman in the black coat on the right. The young woman in the middle of the back row may resemble Edna (Lewis) Coulter (1907-) - Mrs. Winfred Everson Coulter, who may appear as an older woman in record 10993. The other people shown are probably Harriet's Coulter children and grandchildren. Archivists know their names and dates, but not their identities. Perhaps someone in the family will see this photograph and solve its mysteries? Harriet was the great-great granddaughter of William Gilley (1746-1839).

  • Lane - Fitz Henry Lane (1804-1865)
  • 1852
  • Southwest Harbor
Fitz Henry Lane painted one of the earliest views of Southwest Harbor, and seems to have studied the shore carefully. The view shows a lumber schooner loading its long cargo through a port in the bow of the vessel. The white house immediately to the left of the vessel probably shows an early version of the Seth Higgins Clark House. The white house at the center of the shore is the Nathan Clark II House. The white building at the far left is Deacon Henry Higgins Clark's Island House Hotel, early in its career, before it was expanded into several stories with a mansard roof. Clark descendants, and their houses, are still in Southwest Harbor. William Howe Witherle (1821–1906) accompanied Lane on his trip around Mount Desert Island and recorded many of their adventures in his diary. On August 21 he wrote, "… George, Joe & myself took breakfast this morning at the Island House – and a fine one it was – price 25 cts – Mr. Lane took 2 sketches here…” The sketches referred to were of the shore and harbor, not the hotel. See: Witherle, William Howe. William Witherle Diary (unpublished manuscript) (August 16–21, 1852). Personal diary in the collection of the Wilson Museum, Castine, Maine (A00060-1a-1h).
