ARABIAN GULF The guided-missile cruiser USS Bunker Hill (CG 52) transits the Arabian Gulf on 22 January, 2015. Bunker Hill is deployed in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of responsibility supporting Operation Inherent Resolve, strike operations in Iraq and Syria as directed, maritime security operations, and theater security cooperation efforts in the region.

Now the more #riebeckite facies of the #Paleozoic #Quincy #Granite
The Quincy granite was a prized architectural stone, most famously used in the #BunkerHill Monument in #Boston #Massachusetts. Current dating suggests it was intruded into #Avalonia before it glommed onto #Laurentia as #Laurasia and #Pangea were assembled. Today’s #photo set comes from a walk around the eponymous Bunker Hill Quarry. I’ll post more about the history later. Captions!

Where is Babel Rock?
The #USGS #BlueHills #quad #bedrock map and a #Quincy #Massachusetts #historical #map show Babel Rock overlooks a pond from just north of a bend in #Wampatuck Rd. I have been on that rock, and it's #diabase, a #mafic #intrusion into the Quincy #pluton. But the USGS #topographic quad & derivatives e.g. #GoogleEarth show it adjacent to the #BunkerHill #quarry (source of the #granite for the monument in #Boston).
Should a correction be proposed to USGS? Advice welcomed.

My sixth great-grandfather on my maternal side is Maj. John DeMeritt (<-- correct spelling, it's a French name meaning "Of Merit"), the "Powder Major"of Bunker Hill. #genealogy I am not aware of any living or deceased #relatives who have been members of the Daughters of the American Revolution or Son's of Liberty though I am sure I simply need to do more research. I've been considering membership but it's a lot of paperwork and inarguably problematic. #AmericanRevolution #BunkerHill #lineage

Here's a #washwatercolour drawing by #18thcentury #disabled #Cumberland amateur artist, Christopher Machell (1747-1827), showing #ThorntonAbbey gatehouse in #Lincolnshire c.1785.
Machell lost an arm at the Battle of #BunkerHill near #Boston in 1775 during the #AmericanRevolutionaryWar. On many of his drawings you can see the pinholes used to secure the paper to a board so that he could work with one arm on the drawing.
