The university town of Wolfville

Wolfville was originally known as Mud Creek, relating to its thriving boat building business. It became Wolfville in 1830 when two granddaughters of Judge Elisha Dewolfe convinced their postmaster uncle that a more suitable name was needed. The villagers chose the name of Wolfville for their town. Today beautiful elm trees, manicured lawns and grand, century old homes guide visitors down Wolfville's Main Street.
