New Campbellton is a small community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in Victoria County on Cape Breton Island.[1] [2]
This name was suggested to the residents because a Mr. Charles Campbell was a very influential resident here, and a parliamentary representative at one time.[3]
The place was previously known as "Kelly Cove" or "Kelly's Cove"; it received its present name in 1862.[3]
