Talk:Grandique Ferry, Nova Scotia

source of population:
The source of the population of Grand Dique Ferry came from a book by Rev. A.A Johnston in 1960. the name of the book was called 'Churches of Eastern Nova Scotia. Vol 1. It was on Page 203. It had Grand Digue, but it was Grand Digue Ferry. Bishop John Cameron knew it. Also, other pages referred to the place near Grand Anse. This was Grandique Ferry. The Diocese sent me a photocopy. All we mentioned in the book was the population on this page. Put under footnotes. Maggie555 (talk) 20:05, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
