Clare Shipbuilders Co., Meteghan NS

Most recent update: August 16, 2011.


Clare Shipbuilders appears to have been a wartime subsidiary of Halifax Shipyards, itself a subsidiary at that time of Dominion Steel & Coal, (DOSCO).  Can anyone tell me where exactly it was located and what's on the site now?  And if you can make any additions and/or corrections to the table below, please send your info to timcolton@aol.com
