MAPANNAPOLIS POSTCARD COLLECTION IS HISTORY PRESERVED ONE LITTLE SNIPPET AT A TIME
Would you fancy a ride to school in a horse-drawn wagon? While the date is unconfirmed, it sure looks like these children are eager to begin their journey to school. This picture is but one of the many cataloged and presented in our Storymap Postcard collection.
From the collection from # Middleton - Going to School
We encourage you to enjoy the treasure trove of information that comes from looking at early-century postcards. We've amassed quite a collection at: https://www.mapannapolis.ca/postcards
Postcards - History preserved, one little snippet at a time.
We have postcards of ships, buildings, landscapes, seascapes, and lots more. Out Postcards Storymap covers Annapolis Royal, Bridgetown, Paradise, Lawrencetown, Middleton, Clementsport, Bear River, Nictaux, and the more rural parts of Annapolis County.
Mapannapolis, a self-organized group of volunteers, creates Storymaps depicting Annapolis County history in both time and place, allowing visitors, researchers, historians, students, and genealogists a free, online resource. Subjects include Acadian and Black Loyalist history, built heritage, churches, cemeteries, wharves, and many other topics.
