Grey River, Newfoundland and Labrador
Grey River is a small remote fishing community located on the south coast of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Grey River was first settled in the early 1800s by English 'youngsters' brought to Newfoundland via great merchant houses based at Ramea, Burgeo, and Gaultois. James Style(s) was the earliest known resident reported in 1835.
==History==
Originally, the settlement was named Little River. A severe measles outbreak occurred in the early 1900s. Settlers wired a doctor at St. John's to request advice and medical supplies. The dispatch was sent to Little River on the north-east coast instead of this settlement on the south-west coast. As a result, there were quite a few deaths and the name was changed to Grey River to prevent similar happenings.〔http://www.asag.k12.nf.ca/grassroots/greyriver/history.htm〕
