George and Ethel Jewett lean against the wall on the deck of a ship in about 1920.
George, a native of Norridgewock, was a newspaper editor and then went on to work for the Gannett Publishing Co. in New York.
In 1901, he and his new wife, Ethel Bascome of Augusta, moved to London where he opened the Gannett Trading Co.
The couple returned to the U.S. in 1924, living mostly in Atlanta.
