Carmanville, Newfoundland and Labrador : ウィキペディア英語版 | Carmanville
Carmanville is a Canadian community in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. ==History== Carmanville, on the northeastern coast of Newfoundland, was first settled by John Day, from Twillingate, and his family. The Day family trapped otter and fox and became friends with a family of Aboriginals living there. Carmanville was originally called Rocky Bay, and in the 1845 ''Census'' Rocky Bay was recorded to have a population of eleven, all Church of England. It was not until the 1880s that the population began to increase. In 1874 the population was 15, ten years later it was 171, with mostly Methodists. The inhabitants fished, did gardening, and raised animals for a living. By 1900 there were 402 inhabitants. Rocky Bay was changed to Carmanville on June 18, 1906 after the General Superintendent of the Methodist Church of Canada, Rev. Albert Carman. By 1966 the population was 938 and lumbering had also become an important source of employment; especially for shipbuilding. Logging, lobster, cod, and the Labrador fishery were all important to Carmanville's economy.〔Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador.〕
