Cajun History Before the exile, there were only a few Acadian settlements scattered around the New Brunswick area. These included the St. John River (the oldest settlement), Memramcook, Miramichi, Petitcodiac, and on the northern coast of New Brunswick. One of the ships carrying exiled Acadians, bound for South Carolina, was overtaken by the Acadians and sailed north. Thirty-two families made it to the St. John River. When pressured by the English, they moved further inland. By 1756, about 1000 Acadians were settled along the St. John River. The French commander, Charles Boishebert, sent many of them to Quebec; but many remained and settled the area around present-day Frederickton.

Cajun History Though the main section of Nova Scotia is often considered "Acadia", the SE and NE coast of New Brunswick (and up some rivers) was also considered to be Acadia. In fact, the first "Acadian" settlement was actually at New Brunswick. 1604 to 1714 In 1604, the first settlers wintered at St. Croix Island. Though they moved to Port Royal in the spring, several settlements sprang up along the New Brunswick coastline. Fishermen like Denys stayed on the north shore. Those dealing with the fur trade set up at the St. John River. 1715 to 1755 Though the Treaty of Utrecht gave Acadia to the English, the French tried to say that it only consisted of the peninsular part of Nova Scotia. The English also claimed the New Brunswick area. The matter would be debated about till 1763. Many Acadians moved to the New Brunswick area, especially as English pressure mounted in the 1740s and 1750s. The most populous location of Acadians was just west of Beaubassin, around Petitcoudiac, Chipouday, and Memramcook. 1755 to 1763 Hundreds of Acadians tried to settle in New Brunwick to escape the deportation. For many, conditions were as bad for them as they were for those exiled Acadians. Many died due to the weather and sickness. The English captured many and sent them to Halifax to be deported. Some managed to hide or escape capture for the duration of the war.

LINKS History of the Central New Brunswick Woodmen's Museum In 1978 a group of eight people formed a committee to look into the possibility of building a Woodmen's Museum to preserve our local lumbering history. They decided upon a 15 acre site on Route# 8 at Boiestown, made this a Bicentennial Project and began putting their plans into action. The Museum became incorporated and opened to the public in 1979. In 1979 the Quonset Huts were moved here from Peaked Mountain (Renous Area) being donated by Boise Cascade Limited. Through our student grant we remodeled the first Quonset Hut with the axe on the top to resemble a half log, due to the buildings unique shape. The axe was made by Vernon Dunphy. At this time the building contained all the artifacts loaned or donated to the Museum. The surrounding grounds were cleared and a small bridge built over the brook.

Extractions: Visitor Comment Book The Association Museums New Brunswick (AMNB) was founded on October 5, 1974, under the presidency of John Calder. The administration quickly began to develop a training program. The first years of the AMNB saw much change in governmental operations at both the federal and provincial level. In spite of certain difficulties, the AMNB was able to lobby for the benefit of its members, while still offering professional training courses. The 1980s were marked by the development of a resource centre, which complemented the association's educational operations. The AMNB was incorporated in 1980, becoming the principal provider of heritage-sector training in the province. Since its inception, the AMNB has made a point of recognizing the employees and volunteers of the heritage sector in the province. At the second annual meeting (1975) in Saint-Joseph de Memramcook, the late Father Clement Cormier became the first honourary member for life. Following that, an Awards Program was created to draw attention to the accomplishments, projects, and careers of certain professionals, whether paid or volunteer. During the 1990s, the AMNB has continued to educate and to serve its members. As well, it left its mark by creating new projects, by participating at numerous conferences, and by continuing to offer training programs to museum personnel. Education, political canvassing, promotions and marketing, and the training of qualified professionals are the main activities of the Association.

Extractions: History of the New Brunswick NDP The roots of the NDP in New Brunswick date back to the early twentieth century. In 1902, the Fredericton Socialist League was founded by Henry Stuart and by World War 1, branches were established in McAdam, Albert, Newcastle and Saint John. By the 1930's the links between democratic socialism and the labour movement were well forged in New Brunswick and it was natural that New Brunswickers would become part of a broader political movement that was developing in Canada. The Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) was started during and in response to the Depression. At the time its goals were considered revolutionary; public medical services; public transportation, electricity and other industries; worker protection against accident, illness and unemployment; the establishment of an old age pension.

The Aroostook War (1839)
Short history of the 1839 dispute between the US and Canadaover the border between Maine and new brunswick.
http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~godwin/reference/aroostook.html

Extractions: A short history of the conflict and its resolution The Aroostook War was an undeclared, bloodless "war" that occured in 1839. The peace treaty in 1783 had not satisfactorily determined what is the boundary between New Brunswick and what is now Maine. The boundary dispute worsened after Maine gained statehood (1820) and, disregarding British claims, began granting land to settles in the valley of the Aroostook River. The king of the Netherlands was asked to arbitrate the disbute, but the U.S. Senate rejected his award in 1832, although the British accepted it. Canadian lumberjacks entered the Aroostook region to cut timber during the winter of 1838-1839, and in February they seized the American land agent who had been dispatched to expel them. The "war" was now under way. Maine and New Brunswick called out their militiamen, and Congress, at the instigation of Maine, authorized a force of 50,000 men and appropriated $10 million to meet the emergency. Maine actually sent 10,000 troops to the disputed area. President Martin Van Buren dispatched General Winfield Scott to the "war" zone, and Scott arranged an agreement (March 1839) between officials of Maine and New Brunswick that averted actual fighting. Britain agreed to refer the dispute to a boundary commission, and the matter settled in 1842 by the Webster-Ashburton Treaty.

For more information, please visit: http://nb.gazel.ca/ Brief history of New Brunswick Acadians In the 15th century, daring Basque fishers were already working the Miscou coast in the northeastern part of the province. It was not until 1604, however, that Samuel de Champlain and the French landed there and founded a settlement. The aboriginal peoples quickly established good relations with the newcomers, helping them adapt to their new environment and joining forces with them in attacks on New England. The French and British fought over the area for nearly a century. However, after the Treaty of Utrecht, signed in 1713, under which France ceded the territory to England, the French gradually lost interest in Acadia. In 1755, the British expelled the Acadians, who refused to swear allegiance to the British Crown. Some returned eight years later, settling in small communities across the territory. New Brunswick became a province in June 1784, then joined with other provinces in 1867 to form the Dominion of Canada. Today, Francophones make up just over a third of the province's population.
History Of New Brunswick Plates
new brunswick License Plate history
http://www.canplates.com/nb.html

Extractions: Y2K plate - different die style How it all began... Vehicles were first officially recorded in Fredericton (the capital) in 1905, but no plates were issued. Interestingly, this makes NB the third province, after Ontario and Quebec, to officially record motor vehicles. The province began registering vehicles in 1908 and, up until 1910, the plates were provided by the owner. These markers were often white on black, and made of leather, with the initials NB usually printed vertically after the serial number. A dated 1910 porcelain plate is known to exist but it too is provided by the owner as the province did not start officially supplying plates until 1911 when annual registration took effect. NB had a longer run of porcelain plates than any other province. They lasted until 1917 and were in a beautiful array of colours. They are rare, and highly prized today. Believe it or not, NB motorists were required to drive on the left side of the road until Dec 1, 1922! This posed a challenge for neighboring Maine which always had been driving on the right!

Extractions: Here is Derek's Web Page @ Banded Peak New Brunswick was named in 1784 in honor of British monarch, King George III. It used to be covered by tribes of the Algonquin. The Micmac welcomed the French under Demonts and Samuel De Champlain , when they first landed in New Brunswick in 1604.The Acadians were the first Europeans to settle in present day New Brunswick. History shows that the French explorers Sieur de Monts and Samuel De Champlain, arrived in the St. John River on June 24,1604,feast day of St. John the Baptist and named the river in the Saints honor. Charles La Tour, who was made lieutenant Governor in 1631 to 1635 and engaged in trade with the natives. Benedict Arnold, the American trader, lived here in 1787 to 1791. During the war of 1812, Martello Tower was built on Lancaster heights for harbor Defense; it is now a national historic site. I think that Saint John has taken great pride in its history and has kept many of the original buildings and homes of the early settlers, a walk down downtown Saint John is like taking a walk back in the day. King George III was also Duke of Brunswick and a member of the house of Hanover. The first settlers of New Brunswick were the Micmac Indians whose houses spread from Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island to the south coast of the Gaspe Peninsula. Meanwhile from the early 16th century they had made contacts with the Europeans and established a trade which made them depend on European technologies and the victims of Europeans diseases. There was a tiny settlement begun at Port Royal spreading around the Bay of Fundy to include the tribes of Chignecto, Isthmus and Shepody on the North shore. The Acadians developed a very rich and powerful society by diking the marshes by the Bay of Fundy. They used the marsh land to build there farms which couldn't be used before because the tides were so strong . The government of
