Green's Harbour
Green's Harbour is located on the south shore of Trinity Bay about 35 km (22 mi) from Heart's Content. Population 850.
In 1866, the community was visited by the SS Great Eastern entering the harbour. In 1869 the first school was erected, by the Methodist Church. In 1871, Greens Harbour was described as,
A large fishing settlement on south side of Trinity Bay, district of Trinity. The people are engaged in ship building and farming to some extent. The scenery around here is remarkably beautiful. Distant from Heart's Content 23 miles by road, and from New Harbor 9 miles by road. Mail weekly. Population 210.[1]
The late 1800s was a period of community growth: the first marriage was recorded in 1874, and the first teacher appointed the year following. The Way Office was also established in 1875 with the first waymaster Simon Reid. The first official Methodist church was built in 1884, and the first post office opened in Green's Harbour, under postmaster Hezekiah Burt in 1890 and Postmaster William Mitcham in 1891.
In 1907, 18 deaths recorded in Green's Harbour. In 1914 the first train passed, and in 1916 Ambrose Penney sported Green's Harbour's first automobile. In 1930 the settlement became lighted and connected by phone for the first time. The power was flickered on by Mr. Henry March. Originally only one bulb was allowed per household because it was all that the transmitters could withstand. The Salvation Army built its school in 1931. The population in 1956 was 608.
