|  Nautical Chart of Ireland with annotations Great Cranberry Island Historical Society Description: Nautical chart of Ireland, believed to be a chart Samuel Hadlock, Jr. used for his voyages to Europe while touring with Eskimos and sled dogs in 1820s. Chart appears to be a section of a larger chart. A note on reverse (probably by Douglas Macfarlan (donor's father)) states: "This old navigation map was found in a sea chest in the Preble House, Cranberry Isl. Maine in 1947." Samuel Hadlock built what became known as the Preble House for the woman he married while on his European tour. Zoom in to see various annotations on the chart. Many nun-buoys are marked in brownish/yellow, and there are several pencil annotations made along the coastline. This chart was scanned at Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC) in 2016. A framed print of the full size NEDCC scan hangs in the Macfarlan/Preble house. And see God's Pocket: The Story of Captain Samuel Hadlock, Jr. of Cranberry Isles, Maine (Macmillan 1934, 1936, 1999) and "Hugh Dwelley's Beyond God's Pocket". [show more] | ||

|  Portrait of Samuel Hadlock, Jr. Great Cranberry Island Historical Society Description: Photograph. Retouched photo of portrait of Captain Samuel Hadlock, Jr. by Heinrich Gottfried Krug, in pen and ink and pastel at Hamburg, Germany, in the year 1824, owned by Constance Aygun of Stamford CT. Hadlock was the original owner of the Preble House on GCI, with long storied history of expeditions in the north and exhibitions throughout Europe. He died when the Minerva became frozen in the ice ca. 1830. Per Wini Smart 2015 Bruce Komusin book: "Samuel Hadlock portrait - Bruce was contacted from the internet by a distant relative of Capt. Hadlock who lived in Connecticut. She had an oil portrait of the captain that had been painted while he was in Germany. Until this time we only had a silhouette illustrated in Rachel Field's book, God's Pocket. I visited her in Connecticut and photographed the small portrait. It was difficult to capture since it was under curved glass. Bruce Komusin painstakingly removed the reflections in the photo to make the image clear." (See 2002 photos/C. Aygun for photos of original portrait taken on site.) (Originally catalogued as 1000.0.1327 with little info.) [show more] | |
