This is the town that many of the Van Tassel's come from. There are many families some have changed the spelling of their names but can be traced back to the orginal family that came to Digby and was granted a piece of property in Mt Pleasant to farm and was the start of the Van Tassel's of Digby. My particular family was Howard and Robina Van Tassel. He was the son of Stephen John Van Tassel of Digby NS. Enjoy the blog

Beautiful pictures. The old Bear River bridge is gone now, so wonderful to see a photo of it. Edith
Is there any way of getting a copy of the picture of the old Bear River Bridge (1949). I remember going across it when I was a kid and my mom was want a picture of it as well.
Thanks Sherri

You have a gift of storytelling. I especially like the stories concerning Bear River. I am a distant relative of Herb and Jessie and was hoping you might include some history or stories of them as I have very little information on them. Thank so much for these stories.
