Description:
Photos, drawings, documents and letters (all are printouts of scanned materials; ten pages total) pertaining to a pre-fab Hodgson Camp House to be constructed near Fish Point; house later known as the Sheppard Cottage from E. F. Hodgson to Mrs. Charles L. Sheppard in 1939, and from George R. Hadlock in 1940 informing Sheppard that an area of Fish Point road to the town road near Hamor's is a legal right of way for all adjoining property owners and about the cost of extending a power line to her new cottage. Hadlock also mentions William D. Stanley who is about 80 years old at the time (1940) suggesting Sheppard buy Bar Island. A map of property from "Probate 3639/1875" shows division of property near fish point showing property lines for Widow Mary D. Stanley, Abraham C. Stanley, Wm. Stanley, Hannah A. Bunker, Thomas F. Stanley, John Stanley, heirs of Abigail Spurling, Mary Bulger, and Martha A. Ash.
