Moose River Congregational Church

Moose River Congregational Church is a historic church at 2 Heald Stream Road (corner of United States Route 201) in Jackman, Maine. The church congregation is affiliated with the United Church of Christ. The congregation meets in an 1891 Gothic Revival building that has served it since the congregation was established in 1890. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. Description and history The Moose River Congregational Church is set at the northeast corner of Heald Stream Road and US 201 near the northern end of Jackman village. It is a basically rectangular single-story wood-frame structure, with a metal gable roof and a projecting tower and vestibule section at the south-facing front. The front is symmetrically arranged with paneled corner pilasters and narrow pointed-arch windows flanking the projecting section. The entry also has corner pilasters, and a gable-roof pediment matching the main roof line in details. A double-leaf door is topped by a line of dentil moulding, above which is a triangular stained glass window. The second stage of the tower above the entrance is simple, with narrow pointed-arch window on three sides and slender corner pilasters. Above this is a section of pyramidal roofing, finished with wood shingles, some of which are decoratively cut. An open belfry stands above that, each side of the square tower consisting of a pair of pointed-arch openings. The steeple rises above to a weathervane. Although the Jackman area was settled in 1820, it did not have regular religious services for many years, seeing only visits by itinerant ministers. By the late 1880s the population had grown sufficiently to support a call for the construction of a church, and the Moose River congregation formally organized in June 1890. The present church was built in 1890-91 and formally dedicated in 1892. It is architecturally distinctive as a local example of Gothic Revival architecture, and demonstrates an architectural transition toward more fully integrating the tower into the main church structure.

Mount Hope Cemetery (Bangor, Maine)

Mount Hope Cemetery in Bangor, Maine, is the second oldest garden cemetery in the United States. It was designed by architect Charles G. Bryant in 1834 and built by the Bangor Horticultural Society soon after, the same year that Bangor was incorporated as a city. The cemetery was modeled after Mount Auburn Cemetery (1831) in Boston, Massachusetts. Bangor was at that time a frontier boom-town, and much of its architecture and landscaping was modeled after that of Boston. The site has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. History Purchased in July 1834, the land consisted of 50-acre (20 ha) of Lot 27, which was set along State Street – at the time known as County Road and later the "Road to Orono" – and the Penobscot River. It did not include all of the cemetery's central hill; instead, it cut across the crest of the hill and met up with what would later be Mount Hope Avenue. The land was approximately 660 by 3,300 feet (200 by 1,010 m) with the longer side extending north–south along State Street. Approximately 12-acre (4.9 ha) was to be set aside for horticultural activities, and the rest of the land was to be used as a cemetery. This was the preferred resting ground for Bangor's 19th- and early-20th-century elite. The cemetery includes the gravesites of Hannibal Hamlin, a U.S. Vice President who had also held office as Congressman, US Senator and Governor of Maine, a U.S. Senator, ten U.S. Congressmen, two U.S. Ambassadors, four Governors of Maine, eight Civil War Generals, and numerous "lumber barons" and other local businessmen and politicians. Actors Richard Golden and Ralph Sipperly are also buried there. Representation in other media The movie Pet Sematary was filmed in Mount Hope Cemetery. Notable burials Franklin Muzzy (1806–1873), 32nd President of the Maine Senate Hannibal Hamlin (1809–1891), 15th Vice President of the United States, 26th Governor of Maine Ellen Hamlin (1835-1925), 2nd wife of Hannibal Hamlin, Second Lady of the United States Al Brady (1910–1937), Bank robber Doris Pike White (1896–1987), 24th President General of the Daughters of the American Revolution Ralph Sipperly (1890–1928), silent film actor See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Penobscot County, Maine List of burial places of presidents and vice presidents of the United States Notes References External links Official website Bangor in Focus: Mount Hope Cemetery Mount Hope Cemetery at Find a Grave
Cimetière de Mount Hope (Bangor, Maine)

Le cimetière de Mount Hope à Bangor, dans le Maine, est le deuxième plus ancien cimetière paysager aux États-Unis. Il est conçu par l'architecte Charles G. Bryant en 1834 et construit par la société d'horticulture de Bangor peu de temps après l'année même où Bangor est incorporée comme une ville. Le cimetière est sur le modèle du cimetière de Mount Auburn (1831) de Boston dans le Massachusetts. Bangor est à l'époque une ville frontière en expansion, et beaucoup de son architecture et de son aménagement paysager sont calqués sur ceux de Boston[réf. nécessaire]. Le site est répertorié sur le Registre national des lieux historiques. Acheté en juillet 1834, le terrain se compose de 50 acres (20 ha) du lot 27, qui est situé le long de la State Street — à l'époque connue sous le nom de County Road et, plus tard, la « route d'Orono » — et le fleuve Penobscot. Il ne comprend pas toute la colline centrale du cimetière ; au lieu de cela, il coupe à travers la crête de la colline et croise ce qui va devenir plus tard la Mount Hope Avenue. Le terrain fait environ 600 pieds par 3 300 pieds (200 mètres par 1 010 mètres) avec le côté le plus long s'étendant du nord au sud le long de la State Street. Environ 12 hectares sont mis de côté pour l'horticulture, et le reste du terrain doit être utilisé comme cimetière. C'est le lieu de sépulture préféré pour l'élite de Bangor du XIXe siècle et du début du XXe siècle. Le cimetière comprend les sépultures d'Hannibal Hamlin, un vice-président des États-Unis, qui a également été membre du Congrès, sénateur et gouverneur du Maine, un sénateur des États-Unis, dix membres du Congrès des États-Unis, deux ambassadeurs des États-Unis, quatre gouverneurs du Maine, huit généraux de la guerre de Sécession et de nombreux « barons du bois » et autres hommes d'affaires locaux et des politiciens[réf. nécessaire]. Les acteurs Richard Golden et Ralph Sipperly y sont également enterrés. Représentation dans d'autres médias Le film Simetierre a été filmé dans le cimetière de Mount Hope.

Nathaniel Dyer House

The Nathaniel Dyer House is an historic house at 168 York Street in Portland, Maine. Built in 1803, it is one of the city's oldest surviving brick houses, rare for the building material and for its scale, which is for a middle-class family of the period. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. Description and history The Dyer House is located on the Portland peninsula, south of the main commercial port area, overlooking the Fore River at the northeast corner of York Street and the approach road to the Casco Bay Bridge. It is a 2+1⁄2-story masonry structure, built out of brick laid in Flemish bond on the front facade, and in English bond elsewhere. The main facade is five bays wide and symmetrical, with a center entrance flanked by Federal-style pilasters and topped by a half-round transom and entablature. A two-story brick ell extends back from the right rear. The interior has a central-hall plan, with a narrow central hall that houses a winding staircase. The staircase newels are not original, but are from the same period as the house, taken from a nearby house also owned at one time by the Dyers. The woodwork is generally modest Federal-period woodwork, about 90% original, with crown molding in the rightside parlor. The house was built in 1803 for Nathaniel Dyer, who had earlier settled in nearby Cape Elizabeth, and was engaged in shipbuilding and shipping. At the time of its construction only 26 of Portland's 576 houses were brick, and most were more elaborate. This house remained in the family until 1959.

Aroostook State Park

Aroostook State Park is public recreation area within the southern municipal boundary of the city of Presque Isle in Aroostook County, Maine. The state park's 898 acres (363 ha) encompass Quaggy Jo Mountain and sit adjacent to Echo Lake. "Quaggy Jo" is an altered version of the mountain's Native American name, "Qua Qua Jo", which means "twin-peaked." The park is off U.S. Route 1 on the south side of Presque Isle. The similarly named Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge is some 30 miles (48 km) to the north. History The park was formed in 1938 as the first of Maine's state parks three years after the creation of the Maine State Park Commission. It was formed through the donation of 100 acres (40 ha) of land by business persons from the Presque Isle Merchants Association. The park's first ski runs were built by a 35-member crew from the Works Progress Administration. In 1960, lift fees were $1 per person and the ski season was from approximately January 15 to April 15. In 2009, the park was expanded with the addition of 145.6 acres (58.9 ha), which cost the Department of Conservation $60,000. Wildlife While the park's forest provides a home for black bear and moose, smaller species such as foxes, squirrels, and chipmunks are more commonly seen by visitors. The forest's mix of hardwood trees and cold-tolerant softwoods typical of northern Maine includes various species of ash, maple, and birch, as well as hophornbeam, quaking aspen, American beech, and balsam fir. Common birds include hawks, owls, and woodpeckers. Brook trout are found in Echo Lake. Activities and amenities The park offers a 30-site campground and trails for hiking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. Swimming, fishing, and canoeing are offered on Echo Lake.

Дом Никельса — Сортвелла

Дом Никельса — Сортвела (англ. Nickels-Sortwell House) — дом-музей и Национальный исторический памятник США. Расположен на главной улице города Уискассет, штат Мэн, США. История Дом построен в 1807 году капитаном Уильямом Никельсом, владельцем торгового судна и торговцем. Стиль дома отражает исторический период, когда судостроение и торговое мореплавание приносили процветание сообществу побережья штата Мэн. После введения в 1807 году Америкой эмбарго на торговлю с Англией и Францией, и последующей Англо-американской войной 1812—1815 годов, многие семьи побережья потеряли своё состояние. Около 1830 года дом был переоборудован в гостиницу. К концу XIX столетия, когда побережье Мэна стало фешенебельным летним курортом, дом был куплен промышленником и банкиром Элвином Сортвеллом под летнюю резиденцию. В настоящее время дом является домом-музеем и собственностью общества Historic New England. Ссылки Nickels-Sortwell House
North Yarmouth and Freeport Baptist Meetinghouse

The North Yarmouth and Freeport Baptist Meetinghouse, also known as the Old Baptist Meeting House, is an historic church on Hillside Street in Yarmouth, Maine. Built in 1796 and twice altered in the 19th century, it is believed to be the oldest surviving church built for a Baptist congregation in the state of Maine. It is now owned by the town and maintained by a local non-profit organization. Description The North Yarmouth and Freeport Baptist Meetinghouse is located on the west side of Hillside Street, a short way south of Maine State Route 115 on the west side of Yarmouth village. It is a tall single-story wood frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboard siding. The front facade is five bays wide, the central three projecting in a gable-topped section from which the church tower rises. The central section has three doors, the outer ones topped by lancet-arched windows, the center one framed by pilasters and a corniced entablature. Windows on the front are tall lancet-arched sash, while those on the sides are rectangular sash. The tower has a square first stage, with an open octagonal belfry topped by a conical flush-boarded spire. History The church building was constructed in 1796 by the local Baptist congregation. Reverend Thomas Green, one of its seven original members, was elected its first pastor. In 1889 the Baptist congregation moved to its current location at 346 Main Street. The following year, George W. Hammond and his wife, Ellen, purchased the meetinghouse and re-opened it as the Hillside Library and Antiquarian Society. In 1910 they donated the building to the town, and it was used for town meetings until 1946. During World War II the building was used by the Civilian Defense System as an observation post, looking for enemy aircraft. In 1946 the Village Improvement Society took over responsibility for the interior of the building. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Major renovations occurred in the early 2000s. The building is currently available for weddings and other events. Cemetery The Old Baptist Cemetery is adjacent to the meetinghouse on its southern side. Immediately inside the gate, on the left-hand side, is a billboard-style trio of gravestones — one of two in the cemetery, but only around forty are known to have been found in Maine.
