Worlds Collide in North Sydney, NS

Revised 8/13/12

Both Buttery descendents and Scotts are buried in Lakeside Cemetery in North Sydney, NS. I think most Newfies have connections to this area, as it is "The Gateway to Newfoundland." Lots of stories. I gotta go here!

Capt. Thomas & Emily Scott lived on Beacon St. He died in 1944.

Buttery Addresses

• Maud Buttery Amey: Minto St.
• William Buttery: Minto St. (coalminer in 1911 census)
• Eliza Beatrice Buttery Bond Sturge (Walter F. Buttery's youngest daughter): East St.; Worked (and lived with) for Capt. Wilson Mosher* on Pierce St. in 1932.
• Ralph Bond (Eliza's son): Stanley St.

*The Mosher name has long been honoured in the annals of Nova Scotian seafaring. When the twenty-five ton schooner Golden Hind, homeward bound for Sydney, Cape Breton, with a Christmas load of produce from Prince Edward Island, struck on the rocks of Craignish, Inverness County, in a December snowstorm in 1926, it was Capt. Wilson Mosher, her master, who swam ashore with the lifeline through three hundred yards of surf, rescued his crew, and then swam back again to the vessel," so that he could be the last man to leave the ship, in accordance with British traditions of the sea." from http://www.1812privateers.org/Canada/index.html
