John Crockett, not a relative of the fami- lies of that name here, but a half-brother to the first wife of Mr. John Closson. Not far from the year mentioned, he was drowned between that island and Isle au Haut in the sight of his family. His widow afterward became the wife of Mr. John Gross. A number of those islands were inhabited. The one known as Saddle Back, over sixty years ago, was occupied by Mr. Edward Howard, whom we have mentioned as a son-in-law of Mr. Theophilus Eaton. Not far from ...1820, when he became a very old man, he removed to Brooks- ville, where he had children who took care of him, and died there. Worthy's Island was occupied for some time by Mr. Charles Gross who failed to pay for it to the owner, H. Rowell, Esq. , and in 1839 he removed from it, and it was purchased by Sullivan Green, Esq. Russ Island was the residence, for many years, of Mr. George Harvey, a soldier of the War of 181 2. He died there, and the island is now the property of Captain Stephen B. Town of Deer Isle, Maine.
