Pete Heffering's , Hanover Hill Holstien farm was only around 8 miles away from where I dairy farmed for my first 22 years. The county's black and white show was always held at the Labour Day fair in Port Perry, and Hanover Hills Holdteins always showed there, with Pete at the lead. Hanover Hill herdsman , Ken Treveana was a top stockman , and won the Kusseldorf trophy at the dairy expo in Madison,Wisconsin. I was at the Hanover farm many times.

Another famous Holstein bull, Roybrook Starlight, was bred by Roy Orminnson, of Brooklin. The once famous Roybrook farm is now part of the 407 toll highway, and is gone without a trace
