Introduction Post:
My name is Christy and use they/them pronouns (#enby/#agender). I live in rural so-called #Lunenburg in the #SouthShore of #Mikmaki/#Acadie/#NovaScotia. I’m a settler who grew up in the Ottawa Valley and my family are #FrenchCanadian and #Irish who come from Quebec. I identify myself with #socialecology, #ancom, #peasantanarchist, and #agrariansyndicalist movements.
I am a #PhD candidate in the School of Political Studies at the University of Ottawa, and I hope to finish writing my thesis this summer (#phdlife). My studies focus on #neoMarxist, #anarchist, and #decolonial approaches to #AgrarianPoliticalEconomy and #PoliticalEcology. I am specifically investigating historical patterns of #farmland distribution from 2000 to 2017 in #easternOntario through the use of property transfer records mapped using #QGIS. I am hoping to apply my method in Mikmaki next.
I am also a #garlic #farmer preserving as many varieties as I can. I have training in #agroecology, #organic, and #permaculture approaches to #horticulture. I help organize with my local chapter of the #NationalFarmersUnion and am interested in meeting other radical farmers, #landworkers, #homesteaders, #neopeasants, etc. who are interested in organizing for #foodsovereignty, #localfood systems, and #landback.
Other than all that, I am also fond of #tabletoproleplay, #fantasyliterature, #solarpunk #scifi, #bioregionalanimism, #baking, #wildcrafting, #foraging, #homebrewing, #fermenting, and #woodcarving.

Friends of Blockhouse Hill group was created as a response to #Lunenburg town council’s intention to sell 22 acres of the Hill to a private developer not-affordable-to-most medium-density housing. + jeopardizing the town's #UNESCO World Heritage status.
Lunenburg #NovaScotia may be a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it may be a historic fishing village, but it is also filled with color, life, and people!!
Founded in 1753, it continues to be a vital fishing port as well as home of the iconic schooner Bluenose, featured on the Canadian dime.

Anyone tracing #Genealogy in #NovaScotia?
I'm 4 days into marathon #research, uncovering a lot of unintentional information, from #PassengerLists .
Often, similar names are on the same page, if you'd like me to watch for your names?
Some of mine include
#Cashman #Mason #McCarthy #Zinck
#Immigration from #Cork #Ireland #KleinHeubach settling in areas such as #Halifax #Lunenburg #Tangier #Annapolis #SheetHarbour #PortDufferin #Canso
http://www.moidart.org.uk/datasets/emigns.htm
I'm going on with my search.

For two decades, #Bluenose reigned over the North Atlantic as a highliner fishing vessel and famous racing #schooner. Bluenose II was launched in 1963 and has acted as Nova Scotia’s sailing ambassador ever since. Bluenose II promotes our maritime heritage and maintains a connection to the legacy of Bluenose and the age of sail.

A custom, among my ancestors of German background; repeat names. ZINC line follows suit. Also, depending on literacy of historical recorders, #ZINC, ZINK, #ZINCK are the same family name.
Murdock ship landed in #Lunenburg, but homesteads and land were more in the area of the Garden Lots, a mile from town. (burbs😂 )
GARDEN LOTS, is 2kms east of the town, where the Zinc family owned land. In subdividing to children in a last Will: a mention of a lot 30 acres. #Thread (start point) #Genealogy

Sporadically, I work on my #Genealogy. My G-Grandfathers arrived in #NovaScotia on the immigrant ship, "Murdock". Aboard were 269 #settlers, 29 died enroute (25 Jun--31 Sep 1751), from #Rotterdam to #Halifax
I trace this family back 9-gen, to #KleinHeubach #Germany
where George Zinc Married Barbara Schal in 1643.

Altijd op zoek naar een goed wifi signaal om de website bij te kunnen werken, te Skypen of te mailen. Hier zit ik in 2006 met Vagebond voor anker op de achtergrond op de kade in het schilderachtige #Lunenburg, Nova Scotia in Canada. Twee dagen ervoor waren we er 's nachts in dichte mist aangekomen na een tocht van een week vanaf Bermuda. #Vagebond2004
