In 1793, Harcar Lyons and his wife Marcy Peers, came to the area from Warren, New Jersey. They petitioned Governor Simcoe for a grant of land and settled in East Flamborough on Lot 3, Concession 1.
In 1838, Joseph Lyons, the son of Harcar, inherited the property when his father died. The East Flamborough map in the Wentworh County Atlas of 1875 shows a church at that location. It was East Plains United Church.
A memorial stone for Joseph Lyons in the cemetery reads "Joseph Lyons gave this land in 1843 and built the first church on it mostly at his own expense - died April 1872 aged 72 years".
