Two audiocassettes contain an oral history audio interview conducted 8 January 1983 by Joan Hebert with her father-in-law Emile A. Hebert and his wife Alma (Guerrette) Hebert at their home in St. David, Maine. A letter describes the collection materials and provides an explanation to the abrupt end of the audio recording. The hand-drawn map is a plan of homes along the main road (U.S. Tre. 1) in St. David, Maine ca. 1920 from the St. David Catholic Church to a one mile either side.
