[57273] "The Bangor Daily News [ Bangor, Maine]," 9 September 2024: "Bangor - Ruth E. Tapley, 95, died peacefully and free of pain on August 29, 2024, at a Bangor hospital. She was born on May 16, 1929, in the borough of Brooklyn, NY, the daughter of Thomas (Tobias) and Bessie (Borghild Jensen) Egland. Ruth graduated from Jamaica High School and worked as a secretary in New York City. She loved her job and often would take her lunch to Penn Station and watch people coming and going. When visiting with her twin sister in Sedgwick, ME, she met Bob Tapley and soon after would be married. Ruth and Bob made their home in Brewer, ME, but moved to Bob's hometown of Brooklin, ME, upon retiring. Ruth loved gardening and trying new recipes, especially when having company. In later years when she could not do some of the things that she loved, she would spend her days reading and doing her crossword puzzles. Ruth was proud of her Norwegian heritage and would often talk about how glad she was to have been able to visit Norway. She attended Calvary Baptist Church in Brewer for many years before becoming a member at Brooklin Baptist Church. Ruth had a strong faith in her heavenly Father and prayed others would know His love and kindness. She prayed daily for her family and those in need. Ruth always wanted to take care of others often sending money to those in need or just giving people a '$20' to treat themselves. Ruth leaves behind her daughter, Lori Edwards and her husband, Danny, of Holden, ME. She is also survived by nieces and nephews, Ruth Benson (Jim), Carol Becker, Joel Becker (Pam), Paul Becker (Mary), Steve Egland (Lanie), Margaret DeCamillas (Larry), and Janet Trovato (John). Ruth also leaves behind numerous great-nieces and nephews; and several special friends. Additionally, she is survived by her beloved granddog, Fenway whom she adored as much as he adored her. Ruth was predeceased by her beloved husband of 52 years, Bob; her parents; sisters, Harriet Becker and Alice Egland; her brother, Stan Egland; sister-in-law, Helen Egland; and brother-in-law, Bob Becker. Special thanks to Beth Spencer, Joel Egland, MaryAnn Lock and Cinda Lacadie who all spent special time with Ruth and took such good care of her. She loved the visits, chats and yummy treats. You all brought a big smile to her face. Also, thanks to St. Joesph's Hospital for the tender care given to her throughout her stay."

Bank's history of Martha's Vineyard notes that the name Gallyon (Gallion) was very uncommon in England and may be Scotch. Jane married (1) Thomas Payne, probably a London merchant, who predeceased her. She is said to have returned to England to fight a court case for a large sum of money for her children by him. An unverified posting in One World Tree in Ancestry.com provides her dates and places of birth and death, and her ancestry.
Find A Grave memorial 35470490 offers: "Gov. Thomas Mayhew married (2) Jane (Gallion) Paine, widow of Thomas Paine, London merchant. She died after 1666 but before her husband. They had four children: Hannah Doggett, Bethiah Harlock Way, Mary, & Martha Tupper. (By Linda Mac) Susan's family sheet of Jane Gallion Paine Mayhew: She was married to Thomas Paine, 15 Oct 1620 in Wantane, Bershire, England- they have two children: Jane Paine and Thomas Paine. She was married to Thomas Paine Mayhew, 1634 in Medford, Middlesex, Massachusetts, USA- they have 5 children: Mary Mayhew, Martha Mayhew, Thomas Payne Mayhew, Hannah Mayhew and Bethiah Mayhew."

[56772] Erma is daughter of Edwin Kelley (1877-1957) & Eliza Edna Faulkingham (1885-1961; m. in 1905 in Milbridge, Washington Co., ME). "The Bangor Daily News [Bangor, Maine]," 1 December 2021: "Milbridge - Erma K. Willey left this world on November 29, 2021, at the Narraguagus Bay Health Care Facility in Milbridge. Erma was born on Feb. 5, 1927, in Milbridge, ME to Eliza Edna (Faulkingham) Kelley and Edwin A. Kelley. Erma graduated from Milbridge High School in the class of 1945. In August of 1946, Erma married Carroll Everett Willey of Cherryfield. Carroll had recently been discharged after serving four years in the Army Air Corps during World War II. They were married by a justice of the peace in Cherryfield, and immediately headed to the blueberry barrens, where their life together as leaseholders on a plot of land for A.L. Stewart was about to begin. Every August from 1946 to 1999 was spent at their second home on Township 18, tending to a blueberry lease for A.L. Stewart and Cherryfield Foods, and spending time with their extended blueberry family which grew in numbers over the years. Hundreds of young people in the Western Washington County area got their first start at raking blueberries with Carroll and Erma on Township 18. Many friends from the Houlton, Maine area and Nova Scotia also became members of this larger blueberry family and many of them remain very close friends of the family today. Along with helping with the blueberry lease, Erma kept the books for Carroll's construction business, worked part time as a waitress for Howard Snell and the Red Barn Restaurant, and drove for the U.S. Postal Service as a substitute for her brother, Bill Kelley. She also worked as a teacher aide at Milbridge Elementary School and In 1968, at 40 years old, decided to go to college to get her degree in elementary education. She graduated 4 years later and worked for 20 years as a grade school teacher at the Ella Lewis School in Steuben. Her 20 year career in education was one of the highlights of her life. Once a teacher, always a teacher, as she found herself later in life, riddled with dementia, referring to her workers at Narraguagus Bay as her students. When she retired from teaching in 1991, she devoted the remainder of her life to taking care of her grandchildren, helping her husband with the blueberry lease, gardening, and being a devoted mother who never went one day in her life without talking, at least once, to both her daughter and her son, either in person or on the phone. In February of 2021, Erma was honored with the Boston Post Cane for being the oldest living resident of Milbridge, and during the Milbridge Days Ceremony in the summer of 2021, she was honored with the position of Grand Marshall in the parade. Erma was predeceased by her husband, Carroll Willey; as well as her sister, Louise Kelley Ingalls; and two brothers, Winfred A. Kelley and William R. Kelley. She is survived by her son, Wayne Willey and his wife, Linda, of Milbridge; a daughter, Lucille Willey and her husband, Don Beal, of Cherryfield. There are six grandchildren, Charemon Davis and her husband, Rick, of Milbridge, Wanese Lynch and her husband, Chuck, of Ellsworth, Travis Willey and his wife, Nicole, of Milbridge; Valerie Sargent and her companion, Shawn Merchant, of Addison, Starley Moffitt, and her companion, Robert Ramsay, of Cherryfield, and Tara Moffitt of Cherryfield; great grandchilden, Austin Ronco and companion, Kate Dickens, Logan Staples, Cole Willey and companion, Chelsea Newall, Madelyn (Maddy) Willey and companion, Carter Patterson, Charles (Chaz) Willey, Abby Lynch and companion, Michael Sargent, Aaron Lynch, Sophia Lynch, Alexandria Sargent, Joseph Sargent, Ronald (KC) Williams, Valerie Mercereux, Ashlyn Cashman, Paidyn Cashman, Grady Cashman, and Eliza Flathers. Erma is also survived by special nieces and nephews, Marilyn Worden, Ronnie Kelley, Nancy Kelley-Cram, and Cathy Simard; as well as two extra daughters she and Carroll picked up along the way, Jeannie Bradbury and Kathy Upton. All of these people, along with many, many more, have been very special in Erma's life and she loved them dearly."

"The Ellsworth American [Ellsworth, Maine], 1 October 2013":
Bar Harbor - The Honorable Bernard C. Staples of Bar Harbor entered the house of his Father on Sept. 26, 2013, after a long illness that resulted in a blessedly short decline. Bernard was affectionately known to all of his friends as 'Bernie.' He was born Nov. 4, 1932, to Clark R. Staples and Olive Parks Staples.
Bernie graduated from Rockland High School, then received his Bachelor of Arts in Classics, studying Latin and Greek, from Bates College in 1955. He spent two years in the United States Army, and taught high school for a year. He then went to Boston University Law School and graduated with honors in 1961, earning a spot as a senior editor of the Law Review.
Bernie then worked as an attorney for the United States Army Corps of Engineers in West Virginia, returned to Maine, and entered into practice with Ralph Masterman in Bar Harbor. Bernie married Jeanette Staples in 1964, and the couple had a daughter, Heather, in 1967. Jeanette retired from her employ as librarian at the Jesup Memorial Library, and Bernie continued in his practice, notably as county attorney for Hancock County for a term.
Bernie worked long hours as an attorney, focusing his practice on transactional law. He also did public defense work, and included among his cases a homicide matter. Bernie also practiced municipal law, and was town and city attorney to many of the municipalities in the area. He was appointed to the District Court bench in February 1989, serving in Belfast for a time. He also served the court in Bar Harbor until that court was closed in 2005. Notably, Bernie was the District Court judge in Ellsworth for over 21 years. During his time on the bench, he oversaw thousands of cases, primarily involving family law, child protective and criminal law matters. Bernie took his responsibility as the judge in Hancock County very seriously, spending most weekends in his office writing decisions. Above all, he believed that serving the citizens of Hancock County meant serving not only the adults, but most importantly the children in the family law and child protective matters he dealt with most days.
Bernie retired in 2010, and enrolled in Grace Evangelical Seminary in Bangor. A deeply religious man, he enjoyed the education he received, keeping himself fully engaged studying Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic. He welcomed all of his church family entirely into his life as close members of his community, and continued to be involved with them until his passing. Bernie was a member of the Church of Our Father in Hulls Cove for decades, but also enjoyed being a part of the church communities at the Southwest Harbor Congregational Church and the Tremont Congregational Church. Bernie also was very involved in his community in roles other than as a judge and devout Christian; he was part of the SAFE Family Exchange in Hancock County, which provides a safe and peaceful setting for high conflict families to exchange their children for visitation, and in the past he was one of the founding members of the MDI Alcohol and Drug Abuse Group. He was a member of the Bar Harbor Rotary, as well as a past member of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons.
Bernie enjoyed many recreational activities. Never content to sit and let life pass him by, in the past he would take yearly sailing trips with his friends for a week exploring many locations together. He was a lifelong reader, belonging to a very vibrant book club made up of close friends. Bernie loved music and theater, enjoying thoroughly the Met shows at The Grand. While in college he even once performed in 'Brigadoon.' He did not have a singing role, however. More recently, Bernie found a passion for kayaking, finding great pleasure and a closer relationship with his Father while paddling beautiful locations with a very close kayaking 'buddy,' who was much like a son to him.
He is survived by his daughter, Heather Staples of Bar Harbor, who also is an attorney and engaged him nightly in legal argument; Bernie usually won. He also is survived by his daughter-in-law, Michelle Staples of Bar Harbor, who brought great joy to his life along with a certain peacefulness that words cannot express. He is further survived by his much loved cousins, James and Harriet ONeil of Thomaston. Bernie will be greatly missed by his two cats, Stella and Spats; and a beagle named Hank. Bernie was predeceased by his wife, Jeanette, who passed in 2006.
Bernie, as a lawyer and a judge, may be remembered by many things, but perhaps one concept would be of primary importance:'De minimis non curat lex.' Or, 'the law does not bother itself with little things.' Bernie always focused on the key issues of every case and controversy brought before him, giving great heed to the evidence and arguments made about law by his peers, but did not fail to see the big picture and he gave justice fairly and honestly.
