The settlement was named Horton Township after Horton Hall, the English country estate of George Montagu-Dunk, 2nd Earl of Halifax, chairman of the British Board of Trade which was in charge of English settlements in Nova Scotia.</b><br /><br />a poignant photo of the cross memorializing of the acadian deportation in the foreground, with the modest monument to their successors in the background, appears on wikipedia at<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hortonville,_Nova_Scotia<br /><br />5/where did we come from? why are we here? where are we going? what do we need to do to whom in order to have some lunch?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />mistah charley, ph.d.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06303695341246058680noreply@blogger.com
