If there are no gov't monies available to repair this structure, people need to start a fundraiser. For such a worthwhile project, it wouldn't take long to raise the necessary funds. Shame on the gov't for wanting to destroy this piece of history.
This is not only a part of our history but a major part of our village! When looking at the village from many places this barn is the most visible building in Doaktown!
I grew up there all my life and always remember going there in the summer to see the animals and whatever activities that hey may have going on. I have also taken two of my children there to enjoy as well. This should not be torn down.
As a previous visitor to the Doak Site when they were putting the new foundation on the barn, There was a lot of pride in the Doak Historic Site. From what I could tell it needed a roof. Why tear down such an important part of this historic site, why not repair the roof
A very important part of our history. Please keep this historical site open. We want to be able to look at this historical site and tell others what it is about, not tell others, this use to be.
We love the Doak House! It would be such a loss if they closed it or tore it down.
Hopefully it will stay even it means some villagers will be volunteers.

Doaktown and the surrounding upper miramichi should do what they can to keep this. These old places are becoming more rare and it is a great piece of NB history! There would be big regret if it is destroyed. Keep it!
