The History of St. James' and Wood's Cemetery is NOW AVAILABLE
The third edition of the history book has now been completed and is available from St. James for $50.00 plus shipping. The book has 428 pages and contains numerous photographs, many in colour, as well as maps and several charts. Although the focus is on the church and cemetery, relevent community history is also included. There is also a wealth of genealogical information with hundreds of early Gloucester baptism, marriage and burial records listed. The book explains who were the founding families, when the church was built, discusses the significance of the 1853 founding date and why so little is known about the church's early history.
A short history can be found here. PDF File
