Photo of Annie Sam

Description

Here is a photo of Annie Sam, one of the few survivors along with her family of the Indian Island Massacre. Her sister Jane, a brother, and their mother all hid in the brush and escaped with their lives. Annie, who became blind at an early age, lived in late life at Bucksport, where, despite her lack of sight, she was known as “an immaculate housekeeper” who even did her own sewing.
