Hi Jacqueline!
If you're planning a trip to Chevery this summer you and your family should definitely try to get here for the July 26-31 Chevery Festival of the Arts, Conference & Trade Show! There's even more to do if you are able to come a week or two before... depending how much vacation time you have. Check out the Chevery page of this website for more info about what's happening in Chevery this summer (and in general). For example, the annual summer camp offers daily programming for children aged 4-12... Hope to see you here!

I was born in Harrington Harbour and moved to Nova Scotia as a young girl. My parents now reside in Chevery and I hope to take a trip back to my roots this summer. I would love to hear from anyone who has suggestions of places where I can take my children to visit and any artists in the area so I can hopefully bring back some things to Nova Scotia to my friends and family.

Nice site.
I enjoyed the pics and it just confirms the point. I've been away too long! If anyone is ever heading to Montreal I could use a bag of cod tongues and some bakeapples just e-mail me the cost and I'll pick them up.

Hi Tara,

Great!

There are some old postings on this web site. You can also look through the "additional LNS links" section listed on the Quick Links menu. You probably already know this, but the best places to send your resume to are the schools, Hydro Quebec, and health centers.

Good Luck!

Shawn

Hi Kegaskagirl,

Thanks for pointing out the mix up with the Beluga Photos. I was actually the one that added the incorrect description, and who I thought had taken the photos.

If anyone else notices that any of the information on the web site is incorrect, please let me know.

I have contacted Tony, apologized for the mix up, and updated the copyright information and description.

thanks,

Shawn

lots of good information, I'm trying to get information about both Harrington Harbour and my uncle Dr. Donald Hodd and his wife Veronica. Dr Hodd spent most of his life in HH but I can not find much info. Even the maps of Labrador do not show a Harrington Harbour. Thanks for any information you can give....

Hi, I am originally from St.Augustine and moved to Montreal at the age of 5. I have however spent most of my summers there. I cam across the site because I am currently at McGill University and took a Native Studies class as my elective. I am searching for a topic for a long paper I have to write and thaught of trying to dig into my own Native history. I was wondering, do you have any old family trees? I believe my great great grandmother was Catherine Johnson, an Inuit. I was wondering if this was one of the Catherines referred to in the brief history, possibly before her marriage? Ayways if you have any other resources, please let me know....
Gina -
Thanks again for the insight.Some of my questions have been answered.

From my research the town of Chevery was named for a Captain Cheverie who wrecked on the sand shoals in the late 1700s with a load of salt (probably for the cod fishery). I do not know his full name nor the name of his ship. The village of Chevery is very young from a community perspective. It was settled as a community in the 1960s and prior to that the Anderson family had a small govermnent funded experimental farm at the western end known as Cross River as early as 1935.
