I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract For English merchants, planters and politicians, colonizing Newfoundland required learning the limitations and opportunities afforded by the island’s natural environment. The crucial period for this learning process took place from 1610, the first English effort to colonize the island, to the 1699 passing of the Act to Encourage the Trade to Newfoundland, which defined the cod fishery as the island’s only viable industry.

  • Avalon and Maryland: a Comparative Historical Archaeology of the Seventeenth­ Century New World Provinces of the Lords Baltimore (1621-1644)
    AVALON AND MARYLAND: A COMPARATIVE HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE SEVENTEENTH­ CENTURY NEW WORLD PROVINCES OF THE LORDS BALTIMORE (1621-1644) by Aaron F. Miller A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fu lfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Archaeology Memorial University ofNewfoundland February 2013 St. John' s Newfoundland Abstract The Calverts, a seventeenth-century English family headed by the first and second Lords Baltimore left a remarkable colonial legacy in North America. The Lords Baltimore established not one but two colonies in the 1620s and 1630s, the first becoming the Province of A val on in Newfoundland and the second the Province of Maryland. Avalon and Maryland examines the defining aspects of these two colonial ventures in order to better comprehend the history and archaeology of each as well as the differences in the two works and how the experiences at the first influenced the implementation of the second. The individuals who designed and applied those proposals at the two colonies are key to understanding the decisions made. George Calvert's governmental career and economic pursuits propelled his Newfoundland colony but his evolving settlement goals would change the nature of that work and come to define Maryland. His young heir Cecil took on this design and it would prove to be his life ' s work. The appointed leaders of the two colonies also played a crucial role in the on-the-ground decisions and based on George Calvert' s perceived problems at Newfoundland there was a shift from the leadership of military men to a trusted fami ly member at Maryland.

  • 3.4 Marine-Associated Birds
    3.4 Marine-associated Birds Marine-associated birds are discussed below under the three categories: (1) seabirds, (2) coastal waterfowl, and (3) shorebirds. 3.4.1 Seabirds The highly productive Grand Banks support large numbers of seabirds at all times of the year (Lock et al. 1994). Seabirds tend to concentrate over oceanographic features such as continental shelf edges and convergences of warm and cold currents. The upwelling of cold water brings mineral nutrients to the surface, allowing high phytoplankton productivity, which forms the basis for increased productivity at higher trophic levels. Part of the SEA Area is located on the edge of the Grand Banks where it begins to slope into the deep waters beyond the continental shelf. The major flow of the Labrador Current flows south along the outer edge of the Grand Bank. An inshore branch flows westward along the south coast of Newfoundland (Lock et al. 1994). Seabirds also concentrate at fish spawning areas, such as the inshore waters of Newfoundland and the Southeast Shoal, both of which are areas where capelin spawn in great numbers. Seabird observations from the SEA Area are few, especially during the colder months (Lock et al. 1994). The first data were collected by the Canadian Wildlife Service (CWS) through PIROP (Programme intégré de recherches sur les oiseaux pélagiques) from 1967 to 1983 (Brown 1986) and up to the early 1990s (Lock et al. 1994). Additional seabird observations have been collected on the northeast Grand Banks by the offshore oil and gas industry. These data have been analyzed for the period 1999-2002 (Baillie et al.

  • March 31, 1949 Newfoundland and Labrador Becomes a Province
    March 31, 1949 Newfoundland and Labrador Becomes a Province Newfoundland and Labrador is the newest province in Canada and is one of the most sparsely populated. Most of the people in Newfoundland and Labrador live in small fishing settlements along the coast. These small settlement are known as outports. There are many traditional ways of life that have been kept in these areas from the time of the earliest settlers from the United Kingdom and Ireland, but modern technology threatens that way of life. Some of the most fantastic scenery is located in Newfoundland and Labrador, and community festivals that inform visitors of the old traditions, along with the many museums and historic sites, make this province a treasure for tourists. A few of the many famous people from Newfoundland and Labrador include Michael “Mike” Adam, Sir Frederic Bowker Terrington Carter, William Cormack, General Rick Hillier, and Thomas Ricketts, VC. Look at the map of Newfoundland and Labrador below. Label the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador. Locate the cities of Labrador City, Port Hope Simpson, St. Anthony, La Soie, Gander, Bonavista, Grand Falls, Grand Bank, Cartwright, Nain, Natuashish, Hopedale, Schefferville, Esker, and Wabush and label them on the map. Now label the Torngat Mountains, Mount Caubvick (Mount D’Iberville), the Mealy Mountains, the Long Range Mountains, and the Lewis Hills. Also, locate the Churchill River, Exploits River, Gander River, Humber River, Terra Nova River, Ashuanipi Lake, Grand Lake, Minipi Lake, Lake Melville, Lac Joseph, Red Indian Lake, and Atikonak Lake, and label them. Lastly, label the provinces, states, or bodies of water that border Newfoundland and Labrador.
