15127Daniel Leland Jr. House
  • Reference
  • Structures, Dwellings, House
  • Bar Harbor
  • 945 Bar Harbor Road
According to Robert Leland, father of Patti Leland of Trenton, in 1849 this house was moved to its present location at 945 Bar Harbor Road, Map 19 – Lot 6 from about a quarter of a mile closer to Mount Desert Island (probably near 1007 Bar Harbor Road, Map 15 – Lot 16). The house was probably moved by Daniel Leland Jr. (1929-). The 1840 census has both Daniel Leland, born in 1874, and Daniel Leland Jr., born in 1829, living in the houses. Reportedly the house was built c. 1802 although this information has yet to be verified. When Willis Ballard photographed the house in 1962 it was owned by Maurice Clements. The house is now [2014] painted red and the original outbuildings are gone, perhaps due to fire, according to Patti Leland. The Bar Harbor Road has been widened so the house now lies closer to the road, although it is more difficult to see as trees have grown up around it.

A landmark along the Shore Path was the Musgrave Tea Tower. In 1881, New York banker Thomas Musgrave built Edgemere, a Shingle-style cottage designed by William R. Emerson.
