Prince of Wales, New Brunswick


Prince of Wales is a Canadian rural community in Saint John County, New Brunswick. It is located just west of the city of Saint John.

The community was settled in 1783 by Loyalist Lieutenant Colonel Gabiel DeVeber, who was a member of the Prince of Wales American Regiment (PoWAR). The PoWAR fought in the American Revolutionary War. The community was a farming and lumbering community in the 19th century. The Shore Line Railway ran through the community, which has since been abandoned.
