LOCATION Augustine Cove is a picturesque and prosperous farming commun¬ ity situated on the Northumberland Strait on the south side of Prince Edward Island. Its shoreline of about six (6) miles stretches between Cape Traverse on the west and Tryon on the east. The distance inland from the shoreline to the northern boundry is about three (3) miles. I This district is named after one Major-General Augustin Prevost (1723-1786) whom, it is thought, visited here around 1760. Major Pre- #t was born at Geneva, Switzerland, August 23, 1723 of a French fam¬ ily long settled in Switzerland. He was educated as a soldier and fought against the French at Fontenoy, where he was wounded. On January 9, 1756, when in the Dutch service he was transferred as a major to the newly-raised 60th Royal Americans . He served under Wolfe at Quebec , where he was wounded. On recovery, in 1760, he re¬ joined the 3rd battalion in Canada , and having been promoted to Lieuten¬ ant-Colonel took the battalion to the . It was while on this journey that it is believed he visited this area. In 1780, he returned to England and died there in 1786. There are three coves on the shoreline of this settlement, and according to Meachem's Atlas of 1880, one was named Prevost or Provost ^ove, and another Augustine Cove . The name of the third cove was Cum¬ berland, but, through research, it has been established that, since that early visit of Augustin Prevost , the district has been known as Augustine ^ove. Although there were settlements by the French at Cape Traverse nd Tryon, we do not believe there was any settlement in Augustine Cove until after 1760.
