    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SOC.2ACE/933.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi Folks, Just to add a bit of info to your Savary search, there is a biography of Nathan Savary(the pioneer to Digby County) in the Digby County History (pages 324/5). The park, if I remember correctly, was named after him. He was married twice, his second wife being Deidamia Sabin (or Sabean, as it now is often spelled).Dedamia was a sister to my g-g-g-g-grandmother, Sarah, who married Borden Thurber. They were the daughters of Jeremiah Sabin and Susanna LaVallee. Deidamia is said to be the first English child born at Sissiboo (Weymouth) in 1765. Jeremiah Sabin was an early settler to Argyle, Yarmouth County, in 1762 -- By 1765, he had moved to the Weymouth area.Hope this helps some... John
