- The river rises in Shelburne County and flows into the Atlantic at Negro Harbour. The river was first called Cape Negro River but by 1785 the name Clyde came to be used for both the river and the community.
- The area was settled by Loyalists in 1783 and the river was named in 1785 for the River Clyde in Scotland. In 1911, fire destroyed 33 houses and barns and two lumber mills.
