Hi all Thanks Earl. For those of you interested please go to http://twelch.htohananet.com:80/DigbyTown.htm Then go to the southern part of the Town of Digby. On either side of this river, brook, steam or whatever, there are 2 G. ARMSTRONG dwellings. It is this body of water I'm trying to find the name of. Looks like this body of water exists today and empties into the waters directly south of the Town of Digby. I believe this body of water is called "The Joggins," which is to the west of the Annapolis Basin proper. It might even be considered part of the Annapolis Basin.

Hi John Excellent idea. I went through this website and in addition to contacting the city engineer (like you suggest) and the Admiral Digby Museum (like I've already done,) it looks like I could probably call the taxi cab companies, local businesses in the area, police, maintenance department, water department, etc. Somebody has to know. Will be on the phone tomorrow. In addition, I have had quite the response from list members (as usual) with helpful suggestions and ideas and maps. When the river/brook/stream gets named, will be back in touch with an update.
