Welcome, Gervase. I didn't knwo about it until I saw the docu I mentioned.I think the boundary has always been that way, gnu. I've recently found out my great-grandfather was born right on the St. Lawrence, technically in NY, but his family was back and forth, plus there was a mix with some fo teh Iroquis nation, his mother or grandmother, not sure which, yet.
Colorado, too, has a great connection to Nova Scotia, as so many like my other great-grandparents came from there to the gold mines in Leadville and elsewhere, eventually homesteading if they were lucky.
Sure hope I get to visit Nova Scotia someday; I feel like 1/5 of my heart is in Colorado, 1/5 in Nova Scotia and all of it in Scotland!**BG**
