|
| Photo, ca. 1895, rear view of the Preble House showing William Pitt Preble (1811-1905) with two women. The woman on the left could be Preble's second wife, Jane Matilda Hadlock Sanford Preble (1826-1898).

It was restored in the late 1940s and stands today as one of the largest and most historic homes on Great Cranberry Island. It was the boyhood home of Civil War General Andrew Barclay Spurling who was born across the street in the Freeman house. |
