In 1859, this property was gifted from the family of James Baker, the farm property owners, to area trustees of the Methodist Episcopal Church West Zorra, to build a church and create burial grounds.

The Townline Episcopal Methodist Church was built in 1861. Townline Church merged with another small area church in 1915 to create the new Lakeside United Church.

In the early 1930's the old church was demolished and a stone replica was erected in 1933. Since 1859, Townline Cemetery and it's volunteer trustees have continued to care for and preserve this peaceful place, and to offer burial needs.
