History
Clattice Harbour, also sometimes known as Clattis Harbour, is an abandoned community located in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The earliest known mention of the placename comes from an official 1772 Placentia Bay survey map, which suggests that the location had been known and accessed for the local fishery since the mid-18th century. A fisherman named Culliton and a Connors family permanently settled the natural harbour in the early 1800s to catch herring and access local timber stocks. The population grew to include seven households and 41 people by 1836, with records of Connors and Houlihan families.
