Patrick McCue came from County Monaghan, Ireland in 1818 and landed in Cascumpec, PEI. He did not like the place so he took his wife and two sons in a small boat along the coast and around the North Cape reef and landed them in Norway, PEI. He returned alone in the small boat to Cascumpec for the remainder of their belongings. On the return trip around the reef his boat overturned and he was drowned. His body washed ashore near the Black Marsh. He was interred in the Tignish Cemetery near the green.
