Batteau, Newfoundland and Labrador

Batteau was a small fishing village on the Island of Ponds, off the southeastern coast of Labrador. It was located on Island of Ponds in the Grand Falls - White Bay district of Labrador. It was a port of call for ships in 1911. The station was served by the C.N.R. Express after June 1953. The first post office opened on August 6, 1962 and the first Post Mistress was Stella Dyson. The community was later depopulated. Batteau also has a French name because of the French taking over first nations.
