Hi Diane, Happy New Year. My 1972 gazetteer of NB lists no Salmon whatever "in" Sussex Parish. It does list a Salmon Creek in Rothesay and another in Chipman Parishes. I'm wondering if your reference has to do with a location somewhere along the Shepody Road. Little Salmon River is at the east end of St. Martins Parish and is a bit west of Alma. But "Salmon River" (called th Big Salmon River locally to distinguish it from the Little Salmon) empties into the Bay of Fundy east of the village of St. Martins. I don't know where its headwater is, but it probably goes far enough up to meet the Old Shepody Road. Both of these rivers are east of Sussex Parish. Little Salmon River is too far east to be associated with Sussex & I think Big Salmon runs NE - away from Sussex, unless it doubles back in its upper reaches. The Rothesay reference may be what uou are looking for, paddle optional. Hope this helps, Bill Diane McLeod wrote: > Happy new year, list!
