Description:
The Abraham Somes III and later, The Thaddeus Somes home, on Main Street, Somesville. To the right is A.J. Whiting's store, sold to Fernald in 1887.

Image originally labeled “Smith Cottage Mount Desert Maine" but identification changed [by Virginia Somes Sanderson] to read "Abraham Somes III-Thaddeus Somes Home and Mill Pond." It's likely that the house in the center of the image, but obstructed by trees was the "Smith Cottage", torn down c. 1920-1922. [show more]
