Burgoyne's Cove
Burgoyne's Cove is a settlement in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Burgoyne's Cove is located on the east coast of Newfoundland, approximately 224 kilometers (~2.5 hour drive) from the capital city of St. John’s. It is located in Smith Sound within Trinity Bay, North of Random Island.
The deep, sheltered coves in the area provide an ideal environment for Cod and other fish to flourish in numbers. Smith Sound is one of the key breeding grounds for the Atlantic Cod in Newfoundland and Labrador. High, sharp cliffs of slate dominate the coastline and dense forests of Spruce and Fir trees blanket the interior.
Three communities fall within the municipality, Clifton, New Burnt Cove, and Burgoyne's Cove itself (listed west to east). The approximate population of Burgoyne's Cove is around 100 people, but that varies because many people live there seasonally.
Children in Burgoyne's Cove from grades kindergarten to grade 6 commute to the main service town of Clarenville to attend Riverside Elementary. High students from grade 7-9 attend Clarenville Middle School And students from grade 10-12 attend Clarenville Intagrated High (formally Horwood High school).
Burgoyne's Cove was first settled by British Immigrants coming over from England to take advantage of the fishing, logging, and to mine slate (of which there is a very large deposit). A British general, John Burgoyne, who fought in the Revolutionary war and also served for several months in Newfoundland in the late 1700s, lent his name to the new community.
On March 18, 1953, the American Convair B-36 bomber known as The Peacemaker crashed due to inclement-weather, killing all on board, including Brigadier General Richard E. Ellsworth. The flight originated in the Azores and was bound for the plane's home in Rapid City Air Force Base, South Dakota, renamed Ellsworth Air Force Base. The calamity claimed more lives that night when all on board a second plane, a Boeing SB-29 Superfortress from Harmon Air Force Base in Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador spotted the downed Convair, then disappeared, the plane and crew never seen again.
