Lost Camera at Lighthouse Beach

Hi There:

We were just there yesterday at the beach (We were at the beach by the lighthouse in front of the Jetty and parked at the visitor's 30 minutes parking lot, across the street from the light house.) and lost our camera which have a lot of our precious pictures in it. It is a digital camera, silver, Canon, and have picture of an Asian family, two children, a boy and a girl, two older people in their early sixties, and two adults in their forties.

If anyone turn it in, I would appreciate that we will be contacted. My name is Theresa, (858) 345-0966. If you have any info on any other sources that we can contact, we would really appreciate it. Thank you so much for your help.

PS- Our family have combed the area where we were at and I am very sure that it is not there anymore. I know someone has probably picked it up. I am just hoping that at least the pictures can be returned. We were right across the lighthouse, there were some steps that goes down to the beach and we were around the right area of the the beach. Noone was around that area except for two men who were fishing. It was within minutes of when we left and I discovered the camera missing. When I returned, it was gone.

Once again, thank you so much for your help.

4 Wheel Drive Permit

My wife and I are traveling from PA to Cape Cod in June for a long weekend of relaxation and fishing. I will have a 4x4 vehicle and was wondering how to purchase a permit (and how much does it cost) to allow us to drive on the access road from the Harding's Beach parking lot out to the Lighthouse to fish in the inlet at night. My brothers and I have walked the road many times and noticed that other people have driven out to park and fish... I'd rather not have to make that walk with my wife and all of our fishing equipment (LOL).

Please advise.

Thanks in advance,

The Christopher Ryder House

Hi,

I am looking for information on the Christopher Ryder House.

My parents honeymooned in Chatham 36 years ago and have not stopped talking about this restaurant. I realize it may not be there anymore, but I really wanted to give them a little piece of memorabilia for this year’s anniversary. I am getting married in July (same month as their anniversary), and wanted it to be a “before I go on my honeymoon, here is something to remember yours” type of gift.

Is there any information someone can send me on post cards, pictures, write ups, etc. on this restaurant?

Anything would be helpful!
Thank you in advance.

The History of Kate Gould Park

Hi All,

When entering the name of my girlfriend for a random search on Google, it brought up a very interesting namesake. My girlfriend's name is Kate Gould and of course, she shares her name with the park in the centre of the town of Chatham, Massachusetts.

I'm very interested to find out the origins of the Kate Gould which the park was named after. Are you able to inform me or could you point me to someone who might?

We'd very much like to visit the town one day and set foot in the park. Therefore, could you also suggest what time of year would be the best to visit and how we'd get there bearing in mind we'd be most probably flying into Boston?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Many thanks

Help with Chatham World War 2 Research

To whom it concerns:

I am writing to you to find out some information regarding the light house in Chatham.

This is in regards to the men of the army in world war 2 who protected our coast line at Chatham from german submarines and aircraft. They were radar technicians assigned to the area and at one point detected german U-boats off the coast of Chatham.

Without going into too much history, I understand that at one point there were plaques honoring these men possibly hanging inside the Chatham lighthouse. These plaques may have been last seen when the lighthouse had been open for tours back in the early seventies.

If anyone is familiar with these items or have seen them in storage would you please contact me? I am looking for a plaque with the name William A Albert on it, honoring him for his service at Chatham.

thanks for your help,
