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

I'm going on with my search.

@bronwenjones Absolutely. And tone deaf #TimHoustonNS and other #HRMPoli Councilors are still bragging about Emerg Alerts when they don't reach the end of rural Halifax. I survived Fiona without even radio signals or wellness checks, in a community without essential services. I haven't seen #SheetHarbour emergency department open in 40 years. For Emergencies, I have to pass two Halifax Region hospitals to go to the overcrowded city. Many folks have no INTERNET yet, I am fortunate to have Fiber

#News is finally capturing the story of rural #Halifax hospital in #SheetHarbour ,
https://atlantic.ctvnews.ca/we-deserve-coverage-why-one-rural-nova-scotia-er-is-closed-for-a-month-1.6228611 where the Emerg Dept is closed,& 1 hour to the next , maybe open medical center.

#TimHoustonNS wouldn't know the details unless he watches #CTVNews.
We're a unique situation in Rural #HRM. We've been degraded by #Scotiabank closing, no transit & politicians ignoring their responsibility, at all levels of government #HRMPoli #NSPoli #Healthcare

This is where I expect to die.

@patioboater I haven't got it handy, but I live on the ocean in the summer, and when calm, I've gotten a few deceptive ones. The irregular *sky* was the only obvious factor.
I setup my tripod doing a #FallColours shoot and got ones like that. I just love when they turn out that good. #SheetHarbour #NovaScotia #WAYCTV #Fall

RURAL #HALIFAX is a forgotten wasteland. Super pretty, if you can survive in #SheetHarbour

#Scotiabank left, providing no place to do banking or pay bills.
Now when my children need me to send them money, it's a tank of gas to drive to another bank.

No bus, #cellular east, or #Healthcare
Now another #service is lost.
#Seniors with no repair services, no tradesmen. Hit hard by #Fiona
I feel sorry for people that might have to consider driving an hour to do their laundry (& banking) now.

West River, Sheet Harbour (Halifax)

In 1971 after the pulp mill suffered significant storm flood damage, the decision was made to not rehabilitate the plant, and thus pulp and paper operations at Sheet Harbour came to an end. https://sheetharbour.ca/
(Used to sit on the Mill's dock and drink Quarts of Moosehead before Hurricane Beth)

100kms, 90 minutes. 2 hours if you want to see anything along the way, and I have the list...

The last services (Gas, Phone, Food, Business, Supplies) 40 more kilometers to the end of #HRM but 85kms more, to a gas station, or cellular service.
A small park, boardwalk, tourist information, arched walking bridge crossing #river /harbour

Used to be a Lumber Mill here 1922-1971, that washed away in Hurricane Beth; you see how that happened?

(We drank Quarts of Moosehead behind that mill)

They received a lot more rain than the rest of the #Halifax region. #SheetHarbour West River #WAYCTV
