Description From Owner:
- Settled by land grantees in the late 1700s and named for the falls in a stream between Miller and Thomas Lakes. In 1776 Henry Hilliard and others were granted 1,700 acres of land on what was then called the Shubenacadie Lakes.
- By 1831 Charles P. Allen had a lathe here for turning chair legs and later manufactured furniture and buckets.
