High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Yarmouth (2006 pop.: 7,162) is a Canadian city and major fishing port located on the Gulf of Maine in rural southwestern Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia. It is located in the heart of the world's largest lobster fishing grounds and has Canada's highest lobster catch. The townsite may possibly have been visited by Leif Erikson. A runic stone was found at the nearby village of Overton in 1812. It is interpreted by some to be carved by Erikson, while others feel the markings are natural scratches gradually enhanced over the years. The stone is preserved at the Yarmouth County Museum & Archives. The region was visited in 1604 by Samuel de Champlain, who named it Cap Fourchu, and it became a French fishing settlement. In 1759 settlers came to the townsite from Yarmouth, Massachusetts, and named it Yarmouth after their former home. The town was founded in 1761, when a larger group of settlers came from Sandwich, Massachusetts. They were then followed by Acadians originally from the Grand Pré district who returned from exile in 1767. Substantial numbers of United Empire Loyalists arrived in 1785.
