Great-Great-Grandparents
Married November 4, 1899*
| 22. Arthur Leroy McQuinn (photo) was born
on August 22, 1877 or August 12, 1878.(Sources vary) in
Ellsworth, Maine, and died on May 10th, 1962 in Bar Harbor,
Maine. On Arthur's Draft Registration document (1917/1918), he lists his address as 14 Glen Mary in Bar Harbor, which is now McEys resale shop. He also asserts that he is of medium height and build, has grey eyes, brown hair and all of his body parts.  In the 1935 Bar Harbor city directory, Arthur L. Mcquinn is listed as second lieut. of Mount Desert Hose Number 1. |
23. Matilda ("Tillie") Jane Malkson
was born in the same year as her husband Arthur, also in Maine.
She died in 1913. |
At the time of the 1900 Census, Arthur and and Tillie were newlyweds, renting a
home, and they had living with them Tillie's sister Vesta who was a few
years older than Tillie.
Arthur lists his profession as 
which
could be plumber or it could be matador. It's really hard to tell.
In 1912, Arthur and Tillie had a photo taken with all of their kids.
On the 1930 Census document
which I downloaded from Ancestry.com, Arthur listed his occupation as
Fireman and the value of his home as $4000. If I am reading the
document correctly, his salary was $1599. They are both listed as
52 years old. I think Susan Allen Potter, his granddaughter
mentioned that she had called him "Grampy" McQuinn, but it sounded to
me like "Grampyquinn." Susan says that Arthur eventually became
Fire Chief, and that he retired just before there was a terrible fire in Bar Harbor
(1947).
