History

Grand Bay-Westfield is a town located in New Brunswick, Canada. It's situated along the Saint John River and is known for its picturesque landscapes and historical significance.

The history of Grand Bay-Westfield is closely tied to the settlement and development of the Saint John River region. Indigenous peoples, including the Maliseet First Nation, have inhabited the area for centuries before European settlement. The Maliseet people have a deep cultural connection to the river and the land.

The arrival of European settlers, particularly Acadian and English settlers, led to the establishment of farming communities along the riverbanks. The area was valuable for its fertile soil and access to transportation via the river. The town's name "Grand Bay" likely comes from its location at the head of the Grand Bay, a wide section of the Saint John River.
