St. John’s Norway Cemetery was established in the Village of Norway (Kingston Road and Woodbine Avenue area) in 1853.

The archival photo above depicts the original chapel of St. John the Baptist Anglican Church.

There is no date attached with the image, but around the early 1900s I would think.

Do you have an old photograph you’d like to share with our readers?
