The name Nid d'Aigle, or "The Eagle's Nest," is applied to this locality in Bellin's map of 1744, D'Anville's map of 1755 marks at the same place "Etabliss't Francois," or French Settlement. The place is nearly opposite Evandale, the site of the well known summer hotel of John O. Vanwart. Here the St. John river is quite narrow, only about a five minutes paddle across.
See under "Nid d'Aigle," Ganong's Place-Nomenclature of New Brunswick, p. 257. D'Anville's map of 1755 shows here "Etabliss't. Francois," signifying French Post or Settlement. See observations already made at page 91.
