Camp Waipu Cove, Northland, New Zealand
Waipu Museum - The Search For Paradise
In the early 1800s, thousands of Highlanders emigrated to Nova Scotia to escape the harships of Scotland. Amongst them was a charismatic Presbyterian preacher called Norman McLeod, who became the leader of a Gaelic-speaking community centred around St Anns, in Cape Bretton. The community flourished for almost 30 years until a series of crop failures caused widespread famine.
Under the leadership of Norman McLeod, they built two ships - The Margaret and the Highland Lassie - and in 1851, they set sail for Adelaide. Disappointed with Australia, they continued the journey that eventually brought them to Waipu.
In the following years another four ships, The Gertrude, The Spray, The Breadalbane, and the Ellen Lewis, Left Cape Breton to join the original settlers. Nearly 900 people left Cape Breton to join the original settlers. Nearly 900 people left Cape Breton on the six ships and their descendants now number in the tens of thousands.
The Waipu Museum is dedicated to preserving the story of the heroic voyages of their ancestors. One of the most remarkable migrations in the history of the world.
The full 65 min DVD of Waipu The Search for Paradise can be purchased from the museum shop waipumuseum.com
