                  HISTORY
 
Our history on the shores of New Bay dates back to the late 1700`s when the  Beothuk Indians  had many wigwams set up along Manuels Brook and at Wigwam Cove. European settlers came to catch salmon from the many brooks and rivers of New Bay. My great grandmother, Tamar Rowsell had a great uncle, Thomas who was killed and beheaded in 1789 by the Indians as he was taking salmon from his weir at the mouth of Southwest Brook. Southwest Brook is now called Mill River that flows into New Bay at Point Leamington. The Rowsells were part of Matthew Wards salmon catching crew and were the first to have a tilt in Cottrell`s Cove. There are reports of many fights with the Indians after the death of Uncle Thomas right here and also at Wigwam Cove, near Moores`Cove. My grandfather, many years ago told me of many tricks they used to fool the Indians as they tried to survive year around living here.        Soon came the Manuels, shipbuilders from Exploits, to cut timber and to build  many schooners on the shoals of Manuels Brook right here in Cottrell`s Cove. The last four mast schooner ever built in Nfld, the "NINA", was built right here on the shoals of the brook by Jacob Manuel.
