  8. RIVIERE DES HABITANTS [New Minas]
    The first settlers in this village were young couples from Port-Royal, newly married and without children who were looking to start life in a new place though maintaining strong ties with their families in Port-Royal. Located on the banks of the Rivière St-Antoine or la Rivière Grand-Habitant (Cornwallis River), on the opposite side of the river from Cote des Boudreau (Starr's Point), the village was sometimes known as la Rivière des Habitants. Based on the census of 1714, Acadian families living here were the Dupuis, Sire/Cyr, Hebert, LeBlanc, Landry, Benoit, Boucher and Darois.
