I would be grateful if you could give me information as to where I would be able to purchase a set of pictures and maps as they are shown on this wonderful web page. I look forward to hearinfg from you, as I am trying to collate a family history. I am not having much luck at present and I thoought I would start with looking at the local locations.

Date: 6/15/2003 Name: John Goudey Location: Yarmouth, N.S. E-Mail: johngoudey@klis.com Comments: Excellent idea to feature the histories of Yarmouth's village
communities. Believe Lake Annis is one of the more interesting because
of the closeness to Yarmouth (18 miles); the quality of the lake (water);
and the fact that the cottages for the most part front the lake in
one location so that most of the shoreline, over 90% is uninhabited. By
general unwritten consent of those living on the lake, motor driven water
craft are forbidden.
Date: 6/15/2003 Name: Mary Parrish Location: Byron, Georgia, USA E-Mail: Mary2664@hotmail.com Comments: My great grandmother was from Cleland's Corner, Yarmouth.
Her father (my great-great grandfather) was the postmaster at one time.
Her name was Lena Maude Cleland and his name was James H. Cleland.
I would love to find someone that could give me some information about
Cleland's Corner or my family members. Most of my family is deceased
and I would love to find out if I have any remaining family in Yarmouth.
If you have any information about my family please email me.

Date: 6/16/2003 Name: Jim Muise Location: Rhode Island E-Mail: designri@msn.com Comments: I am trying to track heritage to Mikmag indians. My granfather
was Joseph John Muise, born August 26, 1897 he served in the Canadian army
during WW1, his wife was Teresa (Robinson) they had two sons Donald and
Allen. My great-grandfather was John Muise, who I understand was a fisherman
and drowned at sea, I beleive it to be the sinking of the Orinoco in 1909.
He was married to Sadie Muise(White?). I understand the name Mius, Meuse
and Muise were only given to those of the Mikmac indian branch. This goes
back to Philippe II Mius D'Entremont, born 1660 (who had two Mikmac indian
wives (both named Marie). I am finding it very difficult to trace from
this point. Any and all help would be greately appreciated. Thank You,
Jim Muise
