Comments: My paternal grandfather was a Micmac his name at the
time was Arthur Tenbrooks Young. He came from Prince
Edward Island I believe and all my life (64 yrs) i have ALWAYS
wanted to go there to see what he saw to maybe even see gravestones
with our name on it..He was so nice and always had wonderfully
interesting stories of the sea to tell me about. He was a merchant marine
when he lived there and he married a lady from Glasgow , Scotland
Helen Thomson.

Date: 3/14/2007 Name: Tom Dunk Location: New York City E-Mail: tedunk@gmail.com Comments: We have had 35 acres in Sandford that has been untended for
many years and would enjoy hearing from locals who might share news or
information about the area. We have considered exploring planting Christmas
trees there. We need to have a driveway installed as the drainage ditch
put in along the road prevents access to the property. I hope to get back
up there soon to enjoy the peace and quiet and wonderful view of the sea,
and to learn more about what we might do with the land.
Date: 3/17/2007 Name: LittleSonyaL Location: Halifax E-Mail: ShySonya28_07@hotmail.com Comments: Hi there, Just wanted to say I loved growing up in Carleton. I moved there when
I was only 6 with my family(Miriam, David, Lil David, Barbie, Laurie) I
have many friends there and think of them often. When I left in 91, never
thought it would change my life. I often wonder what my life would be like
had we stayed there after my mom died. What If's, life is full of them.
But my life is in Halifax now, and I'm expecting a family of my own in
7 months. I'm having a baby and I plan to visit there with my child someday
and tell her/him all about the wonderful people and places there are in
Yarmouth.

Name: tina brady Location: san bernardino, california, us E-Mail: napoleon-19@earthlink.net Comments: I googled Yarmouth, Nova Scotia and pleasantly enough your site came up. I am researching the Frotten family history for my grandson. Yarmouth seems like a beautiful place to live. I could see why the Frottens settled there. tina Date: 4/2/2007 Name: Jim Jeffery Location: Yarmouth E-Mail: jcjeffery@eastlink.ca Comments: The schooner Bluenose is recognized across Canada and much of the New England States as the symbol of Nova Scotia. What symbolizes Yarmouth county across Canada, the USA, Europe, the United Kingdom, Australia, with some recognition also in Mexico and Russia? Do the Americans or Europeans know when their lobster dinner comes from
Yarmouth County, or perhaps some times they just know it came from Nova
Scotia? Do these same people recognize the Yarmouth Light as unique to
Yarmouth, among all those other Light Houses in the World? Tourists that
have seen it would brobably remember it, but what if you had to live with
a Yarmouth symbol in your house every day? What if it was seen by thousands
of people in all of those places mentioned earlier many times a year, and
seen twice a year by millions on TV? Is it not time for Yarmouth to give
appropriate recognition to this well known and loved symbol? I'll give
you a hint. It was developed in Yarmouth County, but the largest number
are now in Sweden.
