Notes:

I know from the oral history that the Salvation Army in Little Bay eventually built their church at Chimmy Cove but I’ve yet to find out when it was built or how long it was there. It would be nice to find a picture of it. If you have anything to add to this timeline or pictures of any of the people mentioned please let me know.

If you’ve been following this blog you no doubt found a lot of this repeated from the 1888 post. I am sorting through the material I have by topic. I figured I’d post what I’m working on as it often finds its way to people with more information. I’ll probably post other such timelines as I’m going. It would be nice to have access to the Salvation Army’s War Cry reports but I don’t think they’re online – please let me know if I’m wrong.

Thanks for reading!
