Text on Plaque:

ST. JAMES-ON-THE-LINES
1836

This garrison church was erected 1836-38 on the Penetanguishene military reserve. It was also attended by military pensioners and civilians since, until the 1870's, it housed the only Protesant congregation in the vicinity. Building funds were obtained largely through the exertions of the local naval commandant, Captain John Moberly, R.N. The first rector Reverend Geo. Hallen, held the post for thirty-six years. Many of the communities pioneers and military leaders are buried in its cemetery.

Please _move_ up the current #4 mainpage photo to position #3, as there are currently 2 pictures of the plaque showing (#2 and #3), whereas #4 shows the graveyard itself. This sign photo could be #4 - it does not need to be visible on the mainpage, as the other 3 (#1, #2 and #4) are more appropriate, imho. Many thanks for all that you do!! =])
