Nancy Island , Wasaga Beach
WEB SERIES - SEWER GATORS (Nancy Island , Wasaga Beach)
This is the story of the Nancy, a schooner which sailed the Upper Great Lakes as a private cargo vessel in the fur trade. During the War of 1812, the HMS Nancy was pressed into service as a British supply ship. While in this service, the schooner was destroyed in the Nottawasaga River by American Forces.
Two centuries later, the War of 1812 remains a significant event in both the development of Canadian and American national identities and the relationship between our two countries.
In June 1812, the United States declared war on Great Britain. As part of the British Empire, the Canadian colonies were drawn into this two and a half year conflict. The combined efforts of English and French speaking militias, First Nations allies, together with British military forces succeeded in defeating the American invasion. This shattered U.S. President Thomas Jefferson's 1812 prediction that the acquisition of Canada . . . will be a mere matter of marching. The Treaty of Ghent ended the War in 1814, re-establishing the original border between Canada and the United States.
The heroic efforts during the War of 1812 helped shape our country. Today we celebrate two centuries of peaceful co-existence along the longest border in the world.
The sunken hull of the Nancy formed an obstruction in the river and an island was established by the resultant deposition of silt and sand. The remains of the hull now rest in a museum on the island to mark the site of the Nancy's demise and to commemorate her gallant defense. Also on site lays to rest the remains of a British soldier who fought in the war, the old light house and bridge, cannons/muskets/swords and much more .
