| 16297 | Fernald Point from the Back Shore of Clark Point |
|
|
| This photograph was taken from the back shore of Clark Point just up the shore from the Claremont Dock. It shows the large boulder on the shore which is marked by a marker on the top of the boulder to keep boats from hitting it when the tide is high and the boulder is submerged. The Fernald Farm is visible at Fernald Point and to the left is the Fernald barn. "The barn has been gone for quite some time but the foundation is still visible as of 2020. Will Herrick and his family once lived on this farm and kept cows in the barn where they also stored hay. They sold their milk at Northeast Harbor, carrying it there by boat across the Sound. To the right of the photo you can see the herring weir off the end of Fernald Point at the entrance to Fernald Cove." - Ralph Stanley 10/12/20. "The farmhouse was built in the early 1800's. In 1842 it was remodeled and made into a two family dwelling for Eben and Daniel Fernald. The brothers lived there and worked the farm for many years." - Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine by Mrs. Seth S. Thornton, p 138 and 9 - 1938. |

| Nell Rebecca (Carroll) Thornton, Mrs. Seth Sprague Thornton, is leaving Southwest Harbor at Steamboat Wharf for her home in Houlton, Maine. Nell would have travelled by steamship from SWH by way of Bar Harbor to meet the Maine Central Railroad at Hancock Point. She would have ridden that train to Bangor (Northern Maine Junction) where she would have taken the Bangor and Aroostook Railroad to Houlton. The train trip from Bangor to Houlton probably took about 5 hours. |
