of Kent passed over this road from Fort Cumberland to the " Finger 

 Board " and thence to Fredericton in 1799. Parts of it must then 

 have been a mere trail through the woods: thus the part from Ana- 

 gance to Kennebecasis was not constructed until 1802. 



(2) The Fredericton road (east). This left the Westmorland road 

 two and a half miles beyond Hampton ferry, (with later a branch, 

 facilitating travel from Fredericton to Westmorland, from five miles 

 beyond at the " Finger Board, " joining near Belleisle Corner), through 

 Belleisle Corner, Scotch settlement, California settlement later with 

 a branch to mouth of Washademoac, across the Washdemoak north 

 of Lewis Cove, to Jemseg ferry, thence across the Jemseg and through 

 Maugerville to St. Marys. 



(3) The St. Andretvs road. This followed the present highway to 

 Lepreau, beyond which it appears to have run between the present 

 back and coast roads, the present back road having been laid out by 

 Campbell in 1803. From St. George to St. Andrews it followed the 

 present route. 



(4) The Fredericton and St. Andrews road. It ran through New 

 Maryland to Tracy thence to Piskahegan, Pleasant Ridge, Rolling 

 Dam, Waweig and by the river road to St. Andrews. (In 1806 the 

 road had been constructed from St. Stephen to Oak Point, whence 

 a ferry crossed to connect with the St. Andrews road). 



(5) The Quaco road appears to have followed the roads nearest, 

 the present St. Martins and Upham railway. 



(6) The Western road to Fredericton, followed approximately the pre • 

 sent river road. 



(7) The Canada road left Fredericton, followed the west bank to 

 Burgoins ferry, crossed to the east bank which it followed to Bull's 

 Creek, when it recrossed to the west bank, which it followed all the 

 way to Madawaska, where it crossed the St. John and ascended the 

 Madawaska along the western bank of that river by the present road.
