I think I finally got an ID on my Grandfathers Boat. Ever heard of a Waymouth?. An older fishing charter Captain down the Lake from me ID'd it. Dont know if it's positive, but he swears that's what it is. Gonna do a google on it, and see if I get a hit. Can't say I have. Is it spelled Waymouth or Weymouth? S. The Brits have a bad habit of misspelling many words. Eisboch I happen to know that you also have a Weymouth in MA. (we have one here in NS of course). A future professional hockey player named Bobby Sheehan, who was in my grade 12 class when he played his junior hockey here, came from there. As a matter of fact, I believe our village got it's name from the Loyalists who left Mass in the mid 1700s when the ungrateful rabble was acting up..http://www.weymouthnovascotia.com/ I have a Family Tree tracing my Ancestors back to the 1600's. They left Virginia when the rabble started acting up. They were one of the first 20 Familys to settle the Niagara Region. Fought with Brock against the Americans in the Battle of Queenston Heights.And a direct relation of mine was the Lady who informed the Brits of the impending attack by the Americans...... Any guess on who that is? If you know Canadian History, you'll know who I'm referring to. ************************************************** ****** Sure do...she made (makes?) some fine chocolates. ;-) |
