HISTORY
In 1858, William Jabez Marsh traveled from Holland Landing to purchase 500 acres of Crown land adjacent to the village of Thornbury. After choosing a location for his own farm and home, he donated 2.5 acres for the building of a church and rectory. While the church was being built the first Anglican services were held at ‘Grape Grange’, the home of Mr. Marsh and his family. The first church, a frame building erected in 1863 and named St George’s, was located in the newly established village of Clarksburg immediately adjacent to the border with Thornbury in order to serve both municipalities. In writing to a friend, Mr. Marsh described the church in a humorous rhyme:
We have a Church, it has a steeple,
An iron rod and a ball of tin.
I think it will hold 200 people,
If they stand up and are well packed in.
The original church served until 1899 when it was replaced by the present brick structure, erected on the same site. Once the brick church was completed, the original frame church was disassembled and transported in mid-winter by horse-drawn sleighs to Beaverdale where it was re-assembled and continued to serve the congregation there for another half-century. In 1980 an addition was added, providing space for a meeting room, nursery, and rector’s study. A wheelchair accessible entrance to the church and wheelchair accessible washroom were completed in 1995. At this time, the bell tower was found to be in need of reinforcement, so a new steeple with cross and matching roof went up on 1998. A Garden of Remembrance, was begun in 2000 and completed and dedicated on July 22nd, 2001 and in 2012 the new hall will be finished.
