	Campobello Island, New Brunswick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Campobello has always relied heavily on fishing as the mainstay of the island economy, however the Passamaquoddy Bay region's potential for tourism was discovered during the 1880s at about the same time as The Algonquin resort was built at nearby St.

		Owen's illegitimate son, William Fitz-William Owen (1774-1857) became the proprietor of the island in 1835.

		CAMPOBELLO ISLAND, New Brunswick — Long before Franklin D. Roosevelt led the United States out of economic collapse and through a world war, he traveled to Campobello Island to sail, hike and swim.
		Campobello, which Eleanor Roosevelt called "this quietest of places," remains a remote and tranquil spot in the Bay of Fundy where even the water — hemmed in by inlets, bays and coves — noiselessly pushes against the island's rocky coast.
		And it was at Campobello that Roosevelt in 1910 first decided to seek public office, a New York state Senate seat that ultimately led to the most significant U.S. political career in the 20th century.
