Hi Guys. Nice job on the web site, looks great!
See you soon.
Dave
Hi – I was hoping someone could provide some info on a place called Howletts Cove, its acorss the water near a place called Glenburnie Birchy Head Shoal Brook. I am most interested in what Howlett family this cove is named after. Best Regards, Wayne
Hi Wayne,
Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you. I will direct you to the Town Council of Glenburnie-Birchy Head-Shoal Brook as they would be more familiar with the area than I would. I have never actually heard of that cove before, sorry. The email address for the town is gbstownoffice@eastlink.ca……hope this helps.
Hi folks! Can you send me Fred Maclean’s email…he is now head of The Legion there. Also, is Charlie doing the Theatre again this summer? We played there last summer and would like to play again. Last I spoke to Charlie he wsn’t sure about summer 2011. Does the town take on any financial obligation towards this theatre? Sure hope so as it’s crucial to any community to have a good theatre experience, especially for visitors…and locals. Out here the locals support theatre and that’s what keeps a place open and running…lessens the cost too…and provides great enjoyment for all. Looking forward to a summerin Woody Point. Cheers~~~Mike at mike_madigan@yahoo.com
Thanks! Fred is now working on a date for SharecroppersTrio at Legion. Hopefully new owners of Heriatge Theatre will contact us too.(mike_madigan@yahoo.com or guy@thesharecroppers.net)
Congrats on town attaining Registered Heritage District Status and plaque to be installed in May by Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland! Well done, Woody Point. Kathy and I just got our letter yesterday…yes, please send us a copy of Heritage Conservation By-Laws…much appreciated.
All the best with the ceremony in May! Wish we coukld be there.

Hello
My name is Linda Yurcich.
I live in St Catharines, On
Apparently some distant family were born and raised in Woody Point.
As I get older I am more interested in family history.
My Great Grandmother was born in Woody Point Bonne Bay around 1881.
Her name was Irene Vincent.
Her mother was Hannah Galliott.
Her father (I think) was Andrew Vincent.
Her mother died when she was 15 and she left to live with relatives in Halifax.
She married had 4 children (my grandmother) and moved to England
Around 1909 she returned to NL and married a Mr Cutler and had more children.
I believe other family names were Shaw, Gilliam, Gormley and a few others.
Could you help me in locating anyone who migh have information.
my e mail address is tly50@yahoo.com
Thank you so much
Linda
Just looking back at letters here & I see we did contact Fred and we did do a Sharecropper show at the Legion in July!!! (Thanks too, Aiden). Nice turnout and a fine time was had by all. Kathy and I look forward to another summer in Woody Point too and thanks to Leo for cutting the grass and everyone else who helped look after the place in some sort of way. Much appreciated. Gosh, I even drew out the lucky number at the festival dance…and guess whose I drew? Mine! Hope I can do another uglystick workshop next summer. I’ll charge the same! (gratis) Hello to Benjamin and all the other urchins! Mr Mike says hello!!! lol Cheers and have a great Autumn!/winter/Spring!~~~Mike and his better half,Kathy
Thanks Mike and you’re very welcome!!! It was good to have you around town (even if you did draw your own number…rigged I tell ya…rigged…lol)….look forward to seeing you, Kathy and, of course, Scout!!!
