His George Cleeve of Casco Bay, 1885.
English Wikipedia website, viewed May 22, 2012(James Phinney Baxter (1831-1921) was an American businessman, historian, civic leader, and benefactor of Portland, Me. He was born in Gorham, Me. (in what is now called the Baxter House), on Mar. 23, 1831, but lived in Portland from 1840. He attended Master Jackson's School until 1844, and then Lynn Academy until 1848. He began work in the Boston law offices of Rufus Choate, but ill health forced a return to Portland, where he worked in a dry goods importing business with William G. Davis, pioneering a canning and packing business that became important to the state's economy. He was mayor of Portland for six years and died in 1921)
