Shelburne, Nova Scotia
Shelburne is a town located in southwestern Nova Scotia, Canada. It is the seat of the Municipal District of Shelburne.
==History==
Early settlers had small subsistence farms, but most of the inhabitants' income from that time to the present have been derived from the sea.
Shelburne lies at the southwest corner of Nova Scotia, at roughly the same latitude as Portland, Maine. The large and well sheltered harbour was known to the Mi'kmaq as Logumkeegan or Sogumkeagum.
The first Europeans to make a settlement on these shores were the French Acadians. They set up a small fishing settlement known as Port Razoir in the late 17th century, named after the harbour's resemblance to an open razor. The Acadian fishing settlement was abandoned after repeated New England raids during Queen Anne's War in 1705, in which five Acadians were taken prisoner, and 1708.〔("Shelburne", ''Place Names of Nova Scotia'' Nova Scotia Archives and Records Management'', p. 618 )〕 〔https://archive.org/stream/historyofwarsofn00penh#page/38/mode/1up/search/cape〕
