  • Kittiwake/Gander-New-Wes-Valley Region
    Regional Profile of the Kittiwake Region May 2013 Prepared by: Janelle Skeard, Jen Daniels, Ryan Gibson and Kelly Vodden Department of Geography, Memorial University Introduction The Kittiwake/Gander – New-Wes-Valley region is located on the north eastern coast of the Island portion of Newfoundland and Labrador. This region is delineated by the Regional Economic Development Zone (Kittiwake) and the provincial Rural Secretariat region (Gander – New-Wes -Valley) (Figure 1), which have closely overlapping jurisdictions. The region consists of approximately 119 communities, spanning west to Lewisporte, east to Charlottetown, and north to Fogo Island (see Figure 1). Most of these communities are located in coastal areas and are considered to be rural in nature. Only six communities within the region have a population of over 2,000, with Gander being the largest community and the primary service centre for the Kittiwake region. Approximately 20 percent of the regional population resides in the Town of Gander (Rural Secretariat, 2013). The region also encompasses three inhabited islands that are accessible only by ferry: Fogo Island, Change Islands, and St. Brendan's (KEDC, 2007, p.2). Figure 1. Map of Kittiwake/Gander-New-Wes-Valley Region Figure 1: Gander – New-Wes Valley (Map Credit: C. Conway 2008) Regional Profile of the Kittiwake Region Page 2 of 14 Brief History The region’s history is vast. Many of its communities have their own diverse histories, which collectively paint a picture of the past. Aboriginal occupation is the first noted settlement in many parts of the region. Research suggests that 5,000 years ago, what we now call Bonavista Bay was inhabited by Aboriginal peoples who benefited from the region’s abundance of resources such as seal, salmon and caribou.

Chapelle Curator of Transportation SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 — Publications of the United States National Aiuseum The scholarly and scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series the Museum publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of its constituent museums—The Museum of Natural History and the Museum of History and Technology setting forth newly acquired facts in the fields of Anthropology, Biology, History, Geology, and Technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries, to cultural and scientific organizations, and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers from the Museum of Natural History. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902 papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum of Natural History have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions Jrom the United States National Herbarium, and since 1959, in Bulletins titled "Contributions from the Museum of History and Technology," have been gathered shorter papers relating to the collections and research of that Museum.
