As far as history has told me York Harbour got its name from James Cook as he was mapping the west coast of Newfoundland. It was names after one of his ships as was Lark Harbour the next community. I found an article published by Stewart Harvey Who was the principal of St James School in Lark Harbour which i attended. i don't remembe exactly where i found the article but it was found by doing a search on the Bay of Islands if i recall correctly....Hope this helps to answer your question....

Thanks

A proud Newfie from the bay.
