Anyone else from Campbellville out there?


 * I used to work on a farm in the 2nd Line/20th Sideroad area. But that was 45+ years ago. This article need a lot of work. Is there still a mushroom farm south of Campbellville? Modal Jig (talk) 21:13, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

 * "In 1948, Olga and Nikolai, both 66 years old, and the families of their two adult children sailed to Halifax aboard the SS Empress of Canada. “I immediately felt at home in Canada,” she said. “The vast open spaces remind me of Russia and gave me a feeling of comfort.”
 * Olga and Nikolai settled on a 200-acre cattle farm near Campbellville, Ontario, roughly halfway between Milton and Guelph, and continued working as they had in Denmark. The locals, it seems, were relaxed about their new royal neighbours. “The prosperous farmers and their wives have tactfully ignored [the] titles of the past,” reported the Globe and Mail in 1950. “[They] treated Col. Kulikovsky and his lady as they would have treated any other newcomers.”
