Woodville, Nova Scotia

Woodville is a community in Kings County of about 200 people located in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia.

Centred along Route 221, Woodville has a volunteer fire department, a Baptist church, two auto body shops, a home run automotive mechanic business, and many family-run farms.

The community was settled in the early 1800s by New England Planters who were spreading westward from their initial settlements in the Canning area.

The apple industry declined after the Second World War and farmers diversified into other crops, although many large orchards remain in operation around Woodville.

Margaret Dorothy's father, Dr. Harold Edwin Killam, served as community doctor for many years.
