So informal was the setting that it did not seen out of place to see a quiet group of picnieers enjoying the seclusion provided by the hedge which separates the cemetery from the confusion of the Sunday traffic. Having read a history of the church and the surrounding area, the people beneath the markers seemed very real to me. Here was the resting place of Susan Sibbald, along with her sons and their wives. Here was a stone that marked the resting place of Rev. Gibson, the first minister in this district and of Rev.

This region- is so rich in history that to get the most from your visit you should read one of the early histories of the Georgina and York townships. Travelling along the lake shore road from Sutton in the direc- tion of the Provincial Park one comes suddenly upon a scene of such beauty and peacefulness that it remains long in one's memory. Under the shelter of huge gnarled pines, nestles a little stone church. Its simplicity and charm is dif- ficult to describe. A sign by the old-fashioned roofed entrance in, the cedar hedge bids you welcome to the Sibbald Memorial Church of St. George. The door stands open and as you sign. the guest book, you see names from many places, showing its popularity as a tourist attraction. The coloured windows are per- haps the most striking feature of the interior. The one over the alter was in the original wooden church and was transferred to the present stone church when it was built. This window was de- signed and painted in 1845 by the seven sisters of John Graves Simcoe, first Lieutenant Gover- nor of Upper Canada, after whom Lake Simcoe was named. It shows seven crosses, one for each sister. The woodwork in the church is really outstanding. The alter is of oak brought from England specially for this purpose and car- ved by Rev. George Everest, whose father gave his name to the highest mountain in the world. Most of the woodwork -is pine, black walnut and butternut. See Our Wide Selection at Low Prices BUY NOW!

He wrote in his diary at some Iength about the beauties of Lake Simcoe. Or perhaps his young follower, Etienne Brule's moccasined feet had slipped down to some hidden canoe, accompanied by his red companions for this area was his hunting ground for many years. LaSalle. on his memorable trip of exploration in 1673 penned a paragraph in his diary somewhere along this very shore. When the Iroquois hordes swept northward on the war -path, in- flamed by Champlain's interfer- ence on his last trip of explora- tion. what bloody scenes of tor- ture might have been staged on this very spot. This bloody mas- sacre completely wiped out the Huron nation, along with the Jes- uit Missions which had been start- ed among the Indians. Then for many years this area saw no human except the occa- sional hunting party of Iroquois who wandered up from the south. However, there was a re -awak- ening as the courier-de-bois ven- tured further westward in search of richer furs. They took back glowing accounts of this western area. Civilization slowly crept westward sending out exploring fingers into Georgia township, Georgian Bay area and Huron County. It was at this time that a gay, light-hearted girl was born to Thomas Nein, owner of Eildon Hall in Roxburghshire, England.
