History

Where Elsie’s 2.0 Corner Store sits there used to be a General Store which was built in 1945 by Freddy Langille. Freddy Langille moved to Dartmouth with his new bride in 1953 at which time Alton, Freddy’s brother, took over and changed the name to Alton M. Langille Groceries. He carried everything from soup to nuts. Alton apparently was quite the jokester and loved handing out penny candy to the neighbourhood children. Alton and Elsie married in 1967. Elsie helped Alton run the store until his death in 1971. Most of the community remembers the store as Elsie’s since she continued running it until it burned in 1987. 
 
Pierre and Sherril purchased the original property on which the Langille homestead still stands a few years ago and wanted to revive a much loved tradition, to have a convenience store in Central New Annan. Elsie’s 2.0 Corner Store rose from the memory of Elsie’s in days gone by. To honour one of those memories Elsie’s 2.0 Corner Store carries penny candy and loves filling the bags for big and small kids. Elsie’s 2.0 has a great foundation on which to build and create new memories in Central New Annan.
