When the three men, J.F. Keefe, John Hewitt, and
Mark Smaby, paddled here in a canoe looking to locate a new pulp mill,
and saw the lake water falling into the ocean, and this area having lush
forest, a large fresh water supply, and enough of a flatland to work
with, and when all three decided this would be it, one could only think
that the name of the future town came to mind immediately, and once
mentioned, all agreed, this town would be called OCEAN FALLS.

OCEAN FALLS a water colour by Carol Evans
This
image is a print of a water colour done by an extraordinary artist,
Carol Evans. She has so gracefully allowed OceanFallsMuseum.com to
display it here. It is called quite simply, Ocean Falls © and it is a
Giclée type print. The
Iris Giclée process uses millions of
custom-blended ink droplets to faithfully replicate Carol Evans'
artistry. To see more of Carol Evans work click on the photo above, and
a new window will open to her site.
