St. George’s Indian Band Council Inc.

The community of St. George’s is an area rich in Mi’kmaq history. Earliest occupation of the area is uncertain, however the area known as “Seal Rocks” which is now a part of the community of St. George’s, is well documented as being the largest and principle Mi’kmaq settlement in the 17, 18 and 1900’s. Mi’kmaq oral tradition maintains that the Mi’kmaq occupation of the area is ancient.

St. George’s Courthouse was designated a Registered Heritage Structure by the Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador in 2001.
