I have compiled some additional information on Barren Island here, including some mapping that I have manipulated in CAD, some historical information gathered by my brother John, and some scans of old photographs done by Dad (Uncle John). Be sure to click on the thumbnails to bring up the full image. I would love to add additional information, photographs and recountings by other Frenkil family members here. Please feel free to send me anything you might have, or just add comments under the comments section below the image. You can do this as a "guest" without having to sign up on PBase. Just be sure to leave your name at the end of your comment.

What beautiful photos and fond memeories you have captured. I very much enjoyed this nostalgic trip through our family's past. In some ways, it seems like yesterday when we were all sitting in the Great Room playing cards in front of the enormous fireplace. I also distinctly remember catching dozens of frogs early in the evening hours, and who could forget sliding repeatedly down the curved staircase on our pillows? Thanks so much for your efforts.
Warmly,
Jean Ellen
