"This photo is of the Rockland wharf owned by David Gay. He was the first one to ship limestone from Rockland to points south. His kiln is still standing across the street from Dunkin Dounuts. His house is the opposite side of D&D's. Made from clay from his land on the south end of town. He was my 4th great uncle." -- Betsy Rich, 2025
