Gloucester Map 1937
A lovely map of the Gloucester/Rockport area is a bonus find from the 1937-38 Gloucester City Directory. Here’s a small portion of it which generates a few observations:
The current Tavern on the Harbor was previously the site of a home for “Aged Women”!
Trask Oaks appears to have been a neighborhood in the vicinity of Trask Street. Were there prominent oak trees nearby perhaps?
It’s interesting to note that many of the wharves are named.
So many schoolhouses! I don’t think those kids walked “five miles uphill both ways in the snow and rain” , though it may have been uphill!
Do you notice the steam ferry route?
I hope you like looking at old maps as much as I do!

While it was obvious the hibachi had never been used, there was a fair amount of surface rust on the cooking grid, cookbox and hardware that held everything together. The wood base was dusty and faded.
Further inspection and breaking down:

Cleaning:
The tools used were steel wool, wire brush, abrasive sponge and a rag.

Started out hitting any and all surface rust with the small wire brush and then…

Summertime at the Beach
I am hoping someone with sharp eyes can verify which Gloucester beach is shown in this photo of my grandmother Catherine Pierce Ryan and her son Paul Jr. taken probably early 1930s. It might be Long Beach? I like seeing the bathing fashion of the day, which apparently included beaded necklaces and just-so hairstyles.
