Description From Owner:
  • Named for early settler William McGrath. In 1893 by act of the legislature, the school section made up of Larry's Cove, Whistler's Cove, McGrath's Cove and East Dover was renamed Ocean Glen.
  • In 1908 by Legislative act, McGrath's Cove was renamed Rockhaven. None of those name changes became permanent. The Scott family received grants of land here in 1855, 1867 and 1873.
