Summary: Last year, historian Dan Conlin took on an interesting project in Terra Nova National Park. Usually you find Dan at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax, where he's an expert on the Titanic, among other things. He came to Newfoundland to do something a bit different...he wanted to find out about the abandoned community of Minchin's Cove. He was looking for people who used to live there, or who knew stories about the place. Well, he found more than he expected in the area, and now he's coming back to present his findings. I reached him in St.John's, as he prepared to head out to Eastport.
