“And that was the end of aviation here in Essex County” Except, Plum Island airport went on to be owned and operated by Burgess for years, then through its own storied history and still operates as one of the first and oldest operating airfields in all of America
12:41 looks like Voldemort in the window when Prof Quirrel isn't facing the camera. BTW I always wondered what "Photo by Litchman" meant. Now I know. Thank you !
Great account of our history
Love the history of our country. Great video!
Hi Ray, I just discovered your findings. It is so amazing that you followed your passion and bring so many discoveries to those who love the sea !
My favorite history teacher! Bill Hammond was a good guy.
David, better late than never. I enjoyed your presentation and loved all the stories about "Tante Maude". I wish we spent more time with her. ps. I loved the book and have shared it with members of the family!
I understand that the Men of Marblehead at the time o the American Revolution were a remarkable breed, known for their courage, toughness, and unwavering commitment to freedom. Will the museum include an exhibit to the character of these men?
A few comments about Lucy and her adopted mother. When was Lucy adopted? She was born in 1829 and was listed in Lucretia's will as her adopted daughter in 1844. Lucy was 15. Was Lucy ever Lucy's adopted father or did the adoption take place after Joseph's death? Lucy was nineteen when she assisted Lucretia with her pension request. "Aunt Creesie" may not have been a derogatory name. Lucretia was after all Lucy's grand aunt. Could that have been a cute childhood pronunciation of Lucretia? Lucy was not only literate; I envy her beautiful signature!
Excellent historical presentation! Provides many new facts about Lucretia and Joseph Brown family. Greatly appreciate all the efforts the Marblehead Museum staff made on this . I urge anyone who hasn't seen this to invest the hour to view this and better understand how two extraordinary African American citizens did marvelous things and earned the highest respect of their peers during a very different historical context.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Thank you! As residents of Marblehead who have visited the Lee Mansion often, that was a very illuminating presentation -- we learned even more!
Thanks, I really enjoyed listening.
Wonderful presentation..I too am a direct descendant of Elbridge Gerry as he is my 4x great grandfather. So glad to have watched your video.. thank you.
Thanks for this presentation. When I was younger I learned I'm a direct descendent of Elbridge Gerry, and now I feel like I know a bit more about my ancestor.
So interesting, especially now! Thank you!
Thanks. Interesting.
