| 16696 | Aerial photos of the Hinckley Company boatyard in Manset |
|
| The aerial photograph above appears to have been taken in the mid 1970s, but no earlier than 1974 because of the presence of a 1974 Pontiac Trans Am and what looks like a 1974 VW Super Beetle in the parking areas. The other photo is older, possibly late 1950s, as is evidenced by the cars and the absence of some of the newer building in the first photograph. In the older image, The Moorings is clearly visible in the upper right portion of the photo. |

| Photos taken in 1941 and 1942. The following comes from interviews with Ralph Warren Stanley between 2009 and 2013. The stern post was from an old elm tree on Carrie Joyce’s lawn. She sold the tree to Bink Sargent for $100. Carrie thought she was rich, as, at that time, she was getting an old age pension of $30 a month. She hired a car and got Ralph Stanley’s grandmother, Celestia “Lessie” Gertrude (Dix) Robinson, Mrs. Ralph Judson Robinson (1875-1961), to go shopping in Bangor with her. Carrie got a blister on her heel from walking around Bangor. Bink paid Harvard Gilley and Jack Ramsdell $15 and a pint of rum to cut the tree down. Henry Dunbar was running the mill at Southwest Boat at the time and he said that they sawed that tree into logs and lumber and used every bit of it. Carrie E.
