My father built a home in Campbell's Bay at the time of his marriage and lived there until he died. He initially sold farm machinery and later worked as Crown Lands Inspector for the Provincial government. This was a political appointment and he was laid off every time the Liberals lost an election as was customary in those days.

The registry at Ste. Anne's shows he was 4 mos. old at the time of his baptism. If this is correct he was born in Feb.
