| Effie (Taylor) Culbert's turkeys. Effie (wife of Myron Culbert) raised turkeys which they sold at the Covent Garden Public Market in London, Ontario, as well as fresh produce, maple syrup and honey. This photo was taken in the late 1920s at the Culbert homestead (Poplar Farm) on The Coursey Line in Biddulph Township near Lucan, Ontario. (Lot 19, Concession 2). You can see the back of the brick farmhouse that was built by Myron's father, Richard Culbert around 1900 to replace the log house. |
