Albert Hepditch was a quiet, hard working man who was born, lived and ended his days on Merasheen Island. Albert fished with his brother George and later had a small decked boat of his own. He also spent some years on the Cape St Mary's boats, including one year in the "Catherine Hann" with Din Pat. Albert was married three times, two wives having died early in life. After marrying Theresa Hynes from Davis Cove, they raised a family of eleven children, who like most of us, left Merasheen under the resettlement program.
