| This family history concentrates on descendants of James Park of Petite Riviere, Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia Official records and documents establish that two brothers, James and John, and Matthew (possibly a cousin) from Northern Ireland settled at Petite Riviere between 1760 and 1770. All were without doubt Scots-Irish emigrants from Ulster. Although no ship lists have survived to tell us when in the 1760's, and by what route these particular emigrants arrived in Nova Scotia, it is possible, that James, John, and Matthew Park came to the province in a ship chartered by Colonel Alexander McNutt, an Ulsterman who was responsible for the settling of many of his fellow countrymen in Nova Scotia. | Parks Family Web Page Updated April 4, 2003 |
