He and his wife and their nine children would live there for the next 19 years, through a World War and through a depression. Jenny Purington Cirone was one of those children. This is the story of Nash Island and the woman who continues to love it most - the remarkable and strong-willed Jenny Cirone. Jenny's Island Life offers us a window into Maine's maritime history and into the spirit of a small downeast coastal village. When the US Coast Guard could no longer maintain the lighthouse structure, and it was headed for certain demolition, the Friends of Nash Island Light came to its rescue. Through the Maine Lights program, this organization saved an important landmark so central to the history and seascape of Addison, Maine.
