Charles H TurnbullCharles Turnbull was a lifelong summer resident of Harbour View, his lanky frame and friendly demeanor a fixture in the life of the community for decades. He treasured and maintained Sunnymeade, the cottage that his grandmother built in 1928, and alwys took keen interest in the people and activities of the community, from the days of his boyhood and beyond. It is thanks to the combination of his habits of acute observation, his remarkable memory and his desire to keep the history of this special place alive that this book exists. Charles was born in 1923, the oldest son of an American mother and a Canadian father descended from a forebear who settled in Digby in 1786. He was raised in New Jersey and went to McDonogh School and Wesleyan University. He spent his adult years in New Jersey and Connecticut with his wife, Priscilla, where they raised three children. His career was in engineering, but, in keeping with his interest in many other pursuits, he was highly productive as an artist and an author, having published seven books and two essays. He died in 2016. Read More Read Less
