Historical information

Churchill Island was bought at public auction by Mr. Alex Classou, co-founder
of Patra Orange Juice, as a place to spell his racehorses. Churchill Island had
been previously owned by Sister Margaret Craig Campbell. During her 40 years living on
the island, Sister Campbell was the mainstay for Dr Harry Jenkins and his family.
When Dr Harry Jenkins passed away in 1963, Churchill Island
was left to Sister Campbell. She stayed on Churchill Island until ill health
forced her to leave. She put the property up for auction in 1973.
