H. G. Russell

Bar Harbor

It seems that these two brothers went into business together and separately after the were bought out by their brother Paul who ran “Russells”. Howard was one of three brothers that had farms in the Emery District South of the Stone Barn on Norway Drive.

Who is responsible for the Russells Dairy bottles? I have two H.G. Russel ads from the Bar Harbor Times. In one ad he calls his farm Russell Farm and in the other he calls it Russell's Farm if that helps clear up anything.  I write about the Russells a bit in Paul Russell's notes.
