"What's In a Name?" from the Concord Monitor

May 18th, 2007

UCC I Conferee Phil Daley sent us a link to the new “What’s In a Name?” column from the Concord Monitor.

“Back in 1985, Daley and his family were vacationing on Star Island, part of the Isles of Shoals off the New Hampshire coast, when his wife, Barbara Lois, went into labor…”

It’s a charming, short anecdote that we’re sure will amuse you.


Star Island is one of the rocky, wind-swept Isles of Shoals, located off the coast of Rye, New Hampshire. For over 100 years, summers here have provided individuals and families with a welcome respite from their busy mainland lives.

Star Island Corporation is a nonprofit organization which maintains the island and its facilities and provides hospitality services for visitors.
