2013.246.2756Pew 21 in Union Meeting House
  • Document, Correspondence, Letter
  • Organizations, Religious
  • People
Pew 21 in the Union Meeting House, formerly owned by Wm. P. Preble and given to C. E. Harwood for use of the people in 1896; with the death of Harwood 1897, the Pew reverted back to Preble, and Preble, at the request of A. C. Wheelwright, did verbally allow him right to claim said Pew [thus apparently causing legal inaccuracies]. Preble now conveys the pew to Mrs. Frances A. Spurling. Signed by Wm. P. Preble December A.D. 1898, witnessed by Carrie M. Richardson and Lucinda Fernald

Document, photocopy, 2 sheets, essay starting "My mother's interest in Cranberry...", by Mary Cabot Wheelwright, about Mrs. Andrew C. Wheelwright's efforts for GCI, including donating to the church the Sarah Whitman stained glass window, the bell, and the parsonage; paying to restore the pulpit and chairs, helping to settle the site of the Town Dock, and hiring Mrs. Schrifgrisser to teach the children games and handcrafts. Transcribed. Also included is a 2019 letter from an Eliot family descendant, Alexander Goriansky, with with Eliot family genealogy and a copy of a letter published in "Letters from Elizabeth Cabot, Vol. III, Boston 1905". The letter is about Mrs. Cabot's visit to GCI August 8, 1900 to view the new stained glass window in the church: "...It is one of Mrs. Whitman's beautiful wreathes, with gorgeus reds and blues and enough white to show them off, laid on a white Greek cross, on the arms of which is the inscription. The church is absolutely bare, but well colored as to the walls...." Goriansky states that 100 years later, he lived upstairs from where the window's creator, Sarah Wyman Whitman, had lived from 1880-1904 (#77 Mt. Vernon Street, Boston), and that she was very fine designer and maker of "stained" glass windows.
