History Biographical:

St. John's Anglican Church (South Baymouth, One.) is part of the Western Manitoulin Anglican Parish.

Before the church was built between 1950 and 1952, services were held in the school-room. The lumber for the construction was taken from the old St. John's church at Hilly Grove.

The cornerstone was laid on July 5th, 1950 and dedicated on July 22nd, 1952. Both ceremonies were performed by Bishop W.L. Wright.

St. John's was consecrated by the Archbishop of Algoma, the Most Rev. William L. Wright on July 29, 1957.
