Petite-Nation River
The Petite- Nation River is a river in western Quebec, Canada, that flows from the Laurentian Mountains to empty into the Ottawa River near Plaisance, Quebec.
The river is in length.
This river's French name refers to the Algonquin people that inhabited this region, the" Weskarini", which means" people of the little nation".
The valley of the Petite- Nation was part of the Seigneury de la Petite- Nation, originally owned by the Lord François de Laval, the first archbishop of New France.
Joseph Papineau acquires it from Séminaire de Québec in two parts, in 1801 and 1803.
Joseph Papineau sells the seigneury to his son, Louis- Joseph Papineau, in 1817.
Denis- Benjamin, Joseph's second son, is the lord of the seigneury.
In 1929, the Papineau domain was sold off and became the Seigniory Club, which in turn later was acquired by Canadian Pacific hotels, now known as Fairmont.
Louis- Joseph Papineau built a sawmill on the river at the Chutes du Diables Falls.
A village, named North Nation Mills was part of the seigneury owned by Louis- Joseph Papineau.
He was a former rebel, in Lower Canada, who was operating the mill at the time and developed at this site.
Pine logs were floating down the river to the mill.
The owners of the mill changed a few times: from the Papineau family to the Cooke family, and then the Gilmour family, and finally to the Edwards and the McClarens.
The village was demolished in 1920 after the sawmill was shut down.
The area near the river's mouth was flooded by a Hydro- Québec dam on the Ottawa River.
A Quebec park is located in this area.
There is also the South Nation River in Ontario which empties into the Ottawa River.
Cobbs Lake Creek
Cobbs Lake Creek is a creek in Prescott and Russell County in eastern Ontario, Canada, which empties into the South Nation River.
In the early 1900, the Cobb Lake Drainage Scheme reduced a large area covered by water to a tiny little creek.
The goal of the project( which cost 60 000$ at the time) was to expend agricultural production and to allow farmers to sow at an earlier date the flooded part of their farms.
Nowadays, Cobbs Lake is a large shallow lake which forms around the creek during the spring thaw.
Fields are found around the lake, and these fields are flooded during the early spring expanding the lake even more.
This causes problems for local residents since it also floods nearby side roads.
Thousands of migrating snow geese, Canada geese, and many dabbling ducks, such as northern shovelers and pintails, stop over in this location during the spring.
The heavy clay soils of the region were deposited by the Champlain Sea, a shallow arm of the Atlantic which extended into this region at the end of the last ice age.

It flows into the South Nation River near Casselman.
It has a number of branches, including the North, Middle, South and East Castor Rivers which join in Embrun.
The river was named for the many beaver dams found in its watershed;" castor" means" beaver" in French.
Aselbach
Aselbach is a small river of Hesse, Germany.
It flows into the Edersee near Vöhl.
It is located between Asel and Asel- Süd/ Vöhl.
Aselbach is noted as both a waterway and water area.
There are 25 other rivers around the same area.
Nation River Formation
The Nation River Formation is a geologic formation in Alaska.
It preserves fossils dating back to the Devonian period.
North Dundas, Ontario
North Dundas is a township in Eastern Ontario, Canada, in the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry.
North Dundas is located approximately south of downtown Ottawa, midway between Ottawa and Morrisburg.
It is primarily rural with a few small villages.
It is spread across the South Nation River and the East Castor River watersheds.
The township was incorporated on January 1, 1998, by amalgamating the former townships of Mountain and Winchester with the independent villages of Chesterville and Winchester.
The village of Winchester is the township's primary administrative centre.
South Nation River
The South Nation River is a river in Eastern Ontario, Canada.
It springs from forests and marshes located north of Brockville and it flows northeast to empty into the Ottawa River north of Plantagenet.
It s watershed covers.
This river is called the" South Nation River" to distinguish it from a river in Quebec north of the Ottawa River called the Petite- Nation River or" rivière Petite- Nation".
The names of both rivers are derived from the French name for the native people of this area, the Weskarini.
The area surrounding the river, originally covered with white pine, is now mainly used for agriculture.
The river drains an almost flat plain, and its lack of gradient makes it prone to flooding.
Dams and other water control measures have been introduced to help reduce the impact of seasonal flooding in the watershed.
In some areas the river flows through Leda clays which can be very unstable.
Several landslides have occurred over the past century including a major one near the former town of Lemieux on June 20, 1993.
Approximately of mud and clay slid into the river valley, blocking the river's flow for three days.
Four kilometers of river to the south of Spencerville is good for canoeing during most water conditions.
There is a public boat launch at the old mill.
Castor River (Ontario)
The Castor River is a river in eastern Ontario, in Canada.
It flows into the South Nation River near Casselman.
It has a number of branches, including the North, Middle, South and East Castor Rivers which join in Embrun.
The river was named for the many beaver dams found in its watershed;" castor" means" beaver" in French.
