Dear Canadian Researchers:

I found the following research on the Pendlebury Press webpage. It's title and description reads:

"The Blacks of St. Andrews (1783 - 1948)"

"St. Andrews had a black population from its founding, nothing remains of which but a few legends and myths. This is their story."

The web content has an intriguing profile on painter Edward Bannister. You can view his work below:

Also included on the St Andrews site are family trees, a timeline and an additional profile. Although historical web sites have been posted here about black Nova Scotians, author David Sullivan's in-depth stories make compelling reading.

Please click on the url below for "The Blacks of St. Andrews."
