This photograph was identified the next week by Ivadean Wilson Priest, a Roanoke Island Native, who called to say that "Uncle Jeff" Hayman was the gentleman dressing the goose. Mr. Hayman is remembered for many walks of life, but probably most outstanding was his tenure at Fort Raleigh, operating as a vendor under the auspices of the National Park Service. Mrs. Priest won a year's paid subscription to the Coastland Times for her identification.
