Prince Edward Island Tourism Region : North Cape Coastal Drive
Description From Owner:
- The name is believed to be a mistake made by Adm. Bayfield in 1849 which was picked up on other maps and charts until it became common usage. John Welling was a settler here in 1786 before he moved to Shediac, NB in 1795.
- That year the point was shown on a map as Wellings Point and in 1863 on another map as Wellens Point.
- With permission from 'Prince Edward Island Place Names' David E. Scott 2011
