Book Description
This book is a four hundred year timeline of events of Marblehead, Massachusetts. There are stories based on the experiences and observations of one family continuously living in Town. William Dixey was a servant of Isaac Johnson and arrived in Naumkeag in 1629. The Dixey family settled in Marblehead and has lived in this coastal town for almost four hundred years. The author is also a descendant of Isaac Allerton, a Mayflower passenger that used Marblehead as a base for his fishing fleet. Along with the timeline and stories, are four hundred and twenty photographs and maps from the author's private collection. Thirty pages of genealogy in the back of the book show connections to most of Marblehead's old families. Hundreds of names are listed, with some families going back to the late 1500s. Old books, documents, town records, probate records, wills, old newspapers, interviews with Marbleheaders, family letters and other family documents were used in writing the book.

Marblehead's Pygmalion
Author: F. Marshall Bauer
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1614230749
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Agnes Surriage, it turns out, was more Pygmalion than Cinderella. Her role models were the fiercely independent "codfish widows, "? wives of the early Marblehead fishermen who managed home and family seven months a year without their husbands. In Agnes's version of My Fair Lady, she had to act as her own Henry Higgins while making the often painful transformation from "girl of all works"? at the Fountain Inn to the charming and dignified Lady Agnes, wife of Sir Charles Henry Frankland. After deconstructing the legend for twenty-five years, author F. Marshall Bauer has unearthed a story of money, lust and vindication.
