Carbonear Fires Part One 1929
April 1929 was one of two great fires that engulfed Water Street, Carbonear, Newfoundland.
This video looks back at the first fire, that not only endangered businesses and homes on Water Street but threatened the entire town of Carbonear.
There was a large presence of bravery, loss and sorrow. But thankfully, everyone was accounted for.
This is part-one with part-two already in production and to be released as soon it is available.
If you had parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts or neighbours that endured this tragedy, leave a comment, memory or thought that they may have shared with you of the event.
Please share the video with others and would you consider subscribing to my channel to further postings?
Thanks for watching,
Dave

This video is about a few beautiful locations that I visited in just a couple of days on the Great Northern Peninsula, Newfoundland. There's so, so many places time didn't permit me to see. If you haven't been to Newfoundland, please don't do what some others have previously done; a plan to see all of Newfoundland in five days. That is not possible. You would literally need months to see some o...

This is the first sunset I even captioned with my drone (2022). Tonight, March 7, 2024, I'm still enjoying the view, from my PC monitor because outside, there's a big snowstorm getting underway. It's a short video. Stay to tuned for the geography lesson. Then I got a little silly at the end but had fun creating the exit.

Amazing footage. It really transports you there.
Interesting video The name Carbonear is Derived from the French word “Charbonnier” Translated Charcoal Pot That’s what D’Iberville called it After he burned it To the ground…
Grew up in Rocky Harbour before the Park came there. I remember a time when we had dirt roads. The park was such a blessing to the area, bringing jobs and tourism. Although beautiful in the summer it’s a much different place during the winter months.
Beautiful

Thanks for the advice, I really thought I can just tour it in just a few days.
Wow, amazing
I love it. It is making me a little homesick
It's easy to love Newfoundland. Thanks for watching.
Beautiful
Thanks for watching. 😊
an excellent video!
Awesome. I won't get up there this year but I can't wait for spring 2025 to see all this for myself (and to jump across the strait for the first time too).
You have a big treat in 25. Everything, I mean, (just like the song says) ... Everything is beautiful. Thanks for your comment.
Very well done. My mother , Ruth Lawrence, used to work at W. J. Moores's Department Store. In its day it was one of the best stores in the Bay.
@@avalonnorth Correct
Awesome video born on BI 1947
Very informative video as usual. At the old Academy in Carbonear, all students were divided into one of four "houses" or groups named after prominent Carbonear residents. The purpose was to earn points for your house during sports day etc. One house was Boyle house named after Robert William Boyle. At least he had some recognition within his home town.
Hey, Blair. Very interesting memories. Thanks for sharing.
The shot near the end coming up over the Stone Jug on Water St was nice, but since you kept it going I was wondering where you were taking it... and of course then I saw it. AWESOME shot, perfect way to end this video 👏👏👏👏 Very cool story too. Not a name I knew but I'm going to try to learn more now.
Thank you, sir. Your views are important to me and welcome.
Yeah, we called that the mountain, but now I've seen the rocky mountains, that's a pike of rocks, lol
Amazing, I miss home, that's my hometown
Born on bell island in 1963… many fond memories
Thanks for watching Gary. Bell Island sure is beautiful.
I enjoy your videos. May I suggest as a topic for another video at a location nearby, namely the Mad Rocks trail system in Bay Roberts East and the nearby Burnt Head trail in Cupids. Must history there as well as recreational opportunity.
Hey Randy. Thanks for watching and for the great suggestions. I will definitely look into it. Both trails are fantastic hikes. Cheers.
Madrock.
I'll be checking out Susie's Post soon for sure!
Quinlans is a great employer.
Informative and very well produced. Thank you!
Thanks Blair.
What a really cool retro vintage vibes great edit :) interesting
Hey, thanks.
My grandparents are buried in that cemetery
I was in the Port Blandford area last Sept for a wedding. The bride is from Canning's Cove so I slipped away to see the community and return without anyone noticing. It was my first time in that part of Bonavista Bay. I had an uncle from Bunyan's Cove (family name Martin). So I got a fast look around at some communities that I only have heard of. I hope the cemetery shot bought pleasant memories of your grandparents. Thanks for watching.
Totally terrific. You are to be commended for your hard work and creativity in creating this absolutely awesome video.
Thanks for watching and for your flattering comment. Greatly appreciated.
Awesome video! 👏👏👏👏
Thanks, Mark
Beautiful memories
Thanks for watching Mildred.
That was a very interesting documentary, I stayed at Fongs many times a few years ago when my two sons played hockey, it was a nice hotel and food was great. Nice to know the background Thanks
Thanks for watching. Hope Tucker did some barking at the cars.
@@avalonnorth Actually Tucker wasn't around when my boys played hockey, but he was there once for his one and only dog show in Bay Roberts his breeder put him in the show for us. So we stayed at Fongs with Tucker. But barking is something he rarely does LOL
