Cumberland County is a large section of land in Nova Scotia, Canada, jutting into the Bay of Fundy. Thickly forested, its history is made up primarily of logging, mining, and shipbuilding, with its southern shore producing famous ships, including the infamous Mary Celeste, previously explored on this channel.
But, on its north shore, once sat a thriving community now erased from most maps. We’re exploring the site of an old logging camp and mill and the small town that was built around it. There’s not much left here to actually see, but there are countless stories to uncover and tell. This is the town of Shulie, Nova Scotia.
Today, in the heat, humidity, and swarms of bugs, we’re exploring what little remains of this once thriving community alongside Fred Priest, who is a descendant of several residents of Shulie. He also happens to be my wife’s grandfather.
We also explore the story of the giant logging rafts sent out from near Joggins down to New York City in the 1880's.
For genealogical purposes, here's a list of family names discussed in this video: Priest, Patterson, Colbourne, Warren, Hoeg, Goldstein, Copp, and Greer.
