2018.416.2279	Nautical Chart of Ireland with annotations	Document, Chart, Navigational Chart	People Places	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".
