Summary
| Description |
English: Icelandic Settlement Disaster
In the fall of 1874, 350 Icelandic immigrants arrived in Kinmount to help construct the railway. Housed in crude log shanties by the Burnt River, they suffered from hunger and sickness. More than 24 workers died and in the spring the group scattered. The next fall they regrouped in Toronto and travelled west to found the settlement of Gimli, Manitoba. |
