Brothers 44-year-old Alton Jellison and 43-year-old Jack Jellison, both of Milbridge, headed out Saturday to visit an island in a small boat.
On Wednesday a fisherman discovered an overturned boat.
And the Maine Marine Patrol discovered a body believed to be that of one of the brothers on the island that they had planned to visit. Officials did not publicly identify the body.
