Village of Dorchester Heritage ... An Easy Place to Live in Tantramarshire

 

"Home of E.B. Chandler, Father of Confederation

Father of Confederation Edward Barron Chandler made use of the area’s sandstone to build his Georgian mansion, which is now known as the Rocklynn. Just a stone’s throw away is the home of his law-clerk, Sir Albert J. Smith, who is said to have delayed Confederation by 15 months."

"Dorchester’s Heritage

The Village of Dorchester is nestled among forested hills skirting the eastern banks of the Memramcook River at the head of the Bay of Fundy. It is a place where Canada’s Fathers of Confederation attended afternoon tea parties, where native Canadians found an abundance of game and where shipbuilders, stone masons and stevedores carved a living from rich natural resources.

Dorchester’s original residents were Micmacs. Today, these First Nations people operate the Fort Folly Reserve, one of the most successful reserves in Eastern Canada where employment rates are almost 100 per cent. Native-run businesses range from dog breeding and blueberry harvesting to Internet technology companies.

The first non-native settlers were Acadians who arrived from Nova Scotia in 1691, but were later victims of the Acadian Expulsion of 1755. By the 1770s, many Yorkshiremen had settled in what later became “The Shiretown of Westmorland County” and the British Redcoats were claiming lands throughout the eastern British colony.

Dorchester soon became one of the ten custom ports of entry in the province and shipbuilding became one of the chief means of employment. The most famous of the region’s builders of wooden ships were the Hickman, Palmer and Chapman families. Hay from the Tantramar Marshes and locally quarried stone, passed through Dorchester en route to overseas markets and to cities along the northeastern coast of the United States."
