From: Originally Newfoundland now living in Alberta Comments: Visited Old Perlican for the first time in summer of 2019. I was curious to visit as it was the home town of my grandfather Ruben Tizzard before his family left for St John's when he was just a young boy. I grew up knowing my family roots ran deep there and so eventually had to visit on my last trip home. It was a beautiful warm sunny day and the little town was a jewel on the shore Added: April 1, 2021 |
