Today Summerville is a quiet community on the
banks of the Avon River but it has a very interesting past.
Founded  in 1784 by Captain John Grant, a United Empire Loyalists,
it was one of the major shipbuilding centers on the
Minas Shore and a important gypsum producer.
It had two very active wharfs which the remains of are still visible.
At it's height it was the major employer in the area.
