John Cabot may have landed (1497) on the tip of Cape Breton Island; European fishermen were already making regular stops during their yearly expeditions. An unsuccessful French settlement was made in 1605 at Port-Royal (now Annapolis Royal); in 1610 the French succeeded at the same site. For the next century and a half France and England bitterly contested rights to Acadia , which included present-day Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. In 1621, Sir William Alexander obtained a patent from James I for the colonization of Acadia. Control alternated between France and England through several wars and treaties.

    http://www.cabottrail.com/history/
    
    Extractions: Nova Scotia History, The Cabot Trail Cape Breton Highlands, The history of the Cabot Trail begins with the Micmacs, who were the first inhabitants of the region. The name Micmac means "my kin-friends", these Natives lived throughout Cape Breton Island in small groups prior to being placed on reserves. In the year 1497 the first Europeans, led by the famed explorer John Cabot arrived on Cape Breton. Cabot's discovery of the island led to it's eventual settlement by Europeans, mainly by the Scots, Irish, French and English. This mixture of cultures remains on the the island to this day. Many of these European settlers came to the region in an attempt to escape persecution in their homelands. During the Acadian Expulsion, a number of the French escaped to Prince Edward Island and the Magdalene Islands. They later crossed over and settled in Cape Breton. Many of the English who settled in Cape Breton arrived as refugees after the American Revolution, when being a loyalist meant confiscation of lands, social ostracism and possible death. Thousands fled in the years after the revolution, many of whom were given land grants from the British government as a reward for their loyalty. T he mid 1700's brought major changes to the Highlands of Scotland with the end of the Highland Clan System, increased population and a dim future. Many sought a better place to live and new opportunities. For these reasons many Scot's left their homelands and made new homes in Cape Breton. Cape Breton has since become a stronghold of Gaelic culture, some say more fiercely Scottish than Scotland. In the final years of the 18th Century, early

28. Nova Scotia History, History Of Weymouth, Digby County
    A brief history of the village of Weymouth, Digby County, Nova Scotia.  
    http://www.weymouthnovascotia.com/history.html
    
    Extractions: The founding of Weymouth in 1783 was no accident. That year, the Treaty of Paris ended The American Revolution and thousands of people loyal to the British crown left New England for Europe, England and other communities in British North America. Nova Scotia was an obvious destination and Weymouth was one of many coastal communities that saw a large influx of New England settlers immediately following the American War of Independence. Moody arrived in Weymouth in June, 1786 with a fistful of money from the British government, compensation for his military duties during the Revolution. Moody was a community builder, and is considered by many as one of the founding fathers of Weymouth. Moody built a shipyard, donated land for an Anglican church (at Weymouth North) and assisted local Acadians in receiving clear title to their land. Despite the fact that Moody was a slaveholder, he possessed outstanding leadership qualities and is considered one of the best of the Loyalist leaders. Among the thousands of people who left New England after the American Revolution, was an estimated 5,000 Black people (about 3,000 Black Loyalists) who sailed from New York to Nova Scotia, the West Indies, Quebec, England, Germany and Belgium. About 3,500 of these newly freed slaves, former slaves or slaves of White Loyalists, landed in Nova Scotia, establishing communities in Birchtown, Annapolis Royal, Port Mouton and Weymouth.

    http://www.iexplore.com/dmap/Nova Scotia/History
    
    Extractions: The first European to see Nova Scotia was John Cabot, who landed at Cape Breton Island in 1497. In the early 1600s, the French arrived, creating the first European settlements in what would become Canada. The Port Royal Habitation was established by Samuel de Champlain and Sieur de Monts in 1605 and the outpost managed to survive obstacles such as the harsh winter weather and scurvy, both of which killed a number of early settlers. In 1613, the English asserted their claim to the region: They not only founded their own settlement but actually destroyed Port Royal. Rights to the area would remain in dispute until the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, when France gave up most of its claims and the land became England's.

Share your latest Nova Scotia History experience Destination Information - Nova Scotia Cities Baddeck Louisbourg Sydney Halifax About Nova Scotia History Nova Scotia History- The first people to behold the beauty of Nova Scotia are thought to have arrived around 10,000 years ago. They were the ancestors of the Mi'kmaq-the First Nations people who inhabited Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island when the Europeans first arrived. Some think the Vikings arrived in the province a millennium ago, leaving a Viking rune stone in the present-day community of Arcadia near Yarmouth. Some Acadians escaped the deportation and others managed to return several years later. Today, many place names in Nova Scotia are French, and approximately 3% of the province's inhabitants are of French descent. Much of their land was given to New Englanders who relocated to Nova Scotia in the 1760s. In the 1770s, the first major wave of Scots arrived in New Scotland with the arrival of the immigrant ship Hector in September 1773. At the same time, more than 1,000 Yorkshire folk settled along the shores of the Bay of Fundy. In 1783, British Loyalists fleeing the U.S. colonies at the end of the American Revolutionary War moved to the colony, including a large contingent of freed Black Loyalists. Great numbers of people in Scotland and Ireland emigrated to Nova Scotia, followed (at the turn of the 19th century) by people from the Caribbean, Europe and Russia; the result is a remarkable mix of cultures. In 1848, Nova Scotia was one of the first British Colonies to be given responsible government.

It is bounded on the N by the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Northumberland Strait, across which lies Prince Edward Island; on the E and S by the Atlantic Ocean; and on the W by New Brunswick, from which it is largely separated by the Bay of Fundy but to which the Chignecto Isthmus connects it. The climate is moderate and rainfall abundant. The east coast is rocky, with numerous bays and coves, and is dotted with many charming fishing villages. Off the beautiful south shore is Sable Island, called the graveyard of the Atlantic for its many shipwrecks; on the west coast huge Fundy tides wash the shores, extending into the Minas Basin and the Annapolis River estuary.

It belonged to the French settlers living in Acadia. Acadia is now known as Nova Scotia. The King knew that John Cabot had found Nova Scotia before the French. He thought England should have rights to it. King James' men took over the colony, and the French settlers were driven out. A charter was made. In 1621, New Scotland was given to Sir William Alexander. Sir William was related to many important people in Scotland. He was heir to the title of Baron of Menstrie. The charter was written in Latin. In Latin, Nova Scotia means New Scotland.
