This collection has been digitally created from historic maps of Colchester County, Nova Scotia, circa 1874, that were the work of Ambrose Finson Church. The digital scans used to create this collection were created from original maps. While some sections of the maps still retain perfect detail, other map areas had become faded, cracked or damaged with time, even so, the detail remained good. Without loosing that accuracy & visual effect of the maps, some digital repair work was necessary to preserve certain details on some maps. Includes place name index.

There are many stories to tell of pioneers and the legacy they have left us. Those you will find in this book have been a labour of love to collect, enjoy, write, edit and record. There remain many more stories and histories that still need to be retold and are worthy of being recorded. I hope others will find the time to discover them, preserve them and have the pleasure of seeing them in print to share and remember - RC.
