Martha's Vineyard Retired : MAR15 Shelia's Tranquility - Oak Bluffs, MA

TRANQUILITY OAK BLUFFS, MASSACHUSETTS The history on back reads, "A thrifty merchant named Thomas Mayhew purchased Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and the Elizabeth Islands from the Earl of Stirling sometime around 1641. Some questions surrounded the Earl's title to the land and a better one was asserted by Sir Fernando Gorges who was known as Lord Palatine of the Province of Maine. Gorges immediately contacted the cautious Mayhew who dug deep in his pocket once again and paid another "some" for Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket a second time. Mayhew settled his family in Great Harbor, which is now known as Edgartown. The spiritual needs of the community were met by Mayhew's son, Thomas Mayhew, Jr., who is considered to be a founder of the Congregational Church of America.""
