A capsule of our dreams and a symptom of our discontent, Planeville erupted from the wilderness. This is the story of the river people and the village founded by their adventurous son. He went into the woods and built his village, and his descendants lived there for four generations until Planeville was abandoned. The founder of Planeville, Wilhelm was an enigma to his peers. They might have lived that way forever if Wilhelm hadn’t looked at the high ridges that surrounded them and wondered what lay on the other side. Traumatized by the loss of their homes, they retreated into the placid life of the river and hid from the outside world for long generations. The first settlers along the river had fled the Miramichi fire in the late fall of 1825.
