• Notes

  St. James Anglican Church As a mission of Trinity Anglican Church, Galt, the first Anglican service was conducted by Rev. Canon Hinks of Galt in the Royal Templars' Hall on Cooper Street. Later services were held in the Temperance Hall. The Parish of St. James was organized in 1884 and on June 17, 1893 the cornerstone was laid for a church. Dedication services were held on October 28, 1893 by Bishop Baldwin of the Diocese of Huron. St. James was separated on January 1, 1890 from Preston, to which it had been attached since its organization, and continued on as a separate parish. Rev. E. Lee became Rector but only for a short time as he resigned in the Fall of 1890. Rev. W. N. Duthie then became rector of the parish, effective November 1, 1890. The congregation celebrated a Golden Jubilee in 1943. This first church, which was located at 30 Harvey Street, Cambridge (Hespeler), Ontario, was closed in 1990 when a new church was erected on Ellis Road.
