Description From Owner:
  • The 'nose' extends into Big Tracadie R. 9 km SW of Tracadie-Sheila and is named for Noel Barnaby, an Indian who lived there and is said to have had a large nose.
  • Barnabys Nose Brook is nearby and may have been a corruption of Barnaby Noels Brook which gave rise to the folk tale that brought about the naming of Barnabys Nose.
  • With permission from 'New Brunswick Place Names' David E. Scott 2009
