     Captain James Young, grand—father of Mrs. Stanley 
     
     MacVane, supervised the boat building here. The first vessel 
     
     was called the "James" after himself and the next one was named 
     
     the "Annie" 9Elsie" after Mrs. MacVane's mother. He sailed his 
     
     vessel to the West Indies and brought back molasses and sugar 
     
     for the peOple of the Island. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Three generations of a Stewart family at South Lake 
     
     were boat builders. First James Stewart built sailing boats and 
     
     dories; then, later, his son, Fred, and his grand—son, Louis, 
     
     built fishing boats and dories. The dories were shipped to the 
     
     Magdalen Islands and the fishing boats to Earnscliffe and George— 
     
     town, P. E. I., to Pictou, N. S., and the many other areas. They 
     
     built over one hundred boats and dories. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The first sailing vessel at Campbell's Cove ship—yard 
     
     was built in the year 1912 by Aeneas P. Campbell. He named the 
     
     boat the Aeneas P. 
     
    
   
   
    
     At North Lake, the schooner, Alpha, was built in 1873. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Reginald (Reggie) Rose, South Lake, now Charles I. Mac- 
     
    
   
   
    
     Donald's was a boat builder. In later life he moved to Kingsboro 
     
     where he continued his trade. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The only boat builders in Eastern Kings at the present 
     
    
   
   
    
     time are Irving Baker, Lakeville, and Sylvanus A. MacDonald,
