Enjoyed the article immensely and a note of interest…..James and Mary Clarke were the first Clarkes to come to the Magdalen Islands in 1828. They were my great, great, great grandparents. I have visited the islands three times in the past 6 years and became acquainted with their surroundings.

So Penzance and Pender are connected in more than one way! Many thanks for your comments and for visiting my site.

Hi Cherie
The Penders are certainly perfect and you have enabled me to relive the many visits I have made. Thank you!
Pender is an old established Cornish surname and I believe Daniel’s family came from Mousehole near Penzance.

Beautiful and unexpected article, Cherie! I love how you gradiented from the south, to the north of the islands. It made our islands look very fluid.

The church, Saint-Pierre de La Vernière is very impressive, isn’t it? Being an islander, I guess I take it for granted though.

Mary Clark, her husband James and their family were the first of the Anglophone settlers here on the islands, along with two other families. Her loss was a tragedy for us but she was a Godsend for the victims of the ‘Miracle’, because she nursed hundreds of them back to health.

I finished up a new book “A Tour of Brion Islands- Quebec’s 20th Ecological Reserve”. It is a photographic journey to the island and written tour of the past and present. I’m only planning it as an ebook right now.

Thanks for the mention in your article. It is much appreciated.

You can reserve the campsites in advance – the NPS starts taking reservations for the W.T. on March 15th. I faxed my itinerary to them on that date, along with the I believe $25 fee, and I got my first choice of itinerary.

For more information and to make reservations, go to: http://www.nps.gov/mora/planyourvisit/reservations-and-permits.htm

Great trip report, I enjoyed reading it. We are headed up there to start our journey on August 15th and can’t wait!
