It looks like Karma owned it from 1944 until Del Prete bought it. But Frank the old timer who lived next door told me that Pitkin owned a lot of land in that area. Williams would have stayed at the old John Beaver house on Beaver Island I think he purchased it from Dartmouth College and when he passed away he left it to Dartmouth rather than his two children. Dartmouth sold it to a private family last year. You have a lot more information on this
subject than I do. Did you live here or in the area? Maybe you know who the "KINGDON" was that was chiseled into the big rock on Beaver or the grave on the back side near the cut between big and little Beaver.
