Report on the 1968 excavation at the Roma site, P.E.I. / by E. Frank Korvemaker.: R61-2/7-88E-PDF

"The Roma settlement was established in 1732 on the east coast of Isle St. Jean (or P.E.I.) by Jean Pierre Roma at a place called Trois-Rivières (now Brudenell Point) … The site of the Roma Settlement appears to have remained unoccupied since 1745, except for a brief period between 1820 and 1850 when a general store was operated on the point. The destroyed French Settlement has been thoroughly covered and farmed for almost 200 years, and hence there is little visible evidence of the Roma occupation."--Introduction, page 5.
