Simcoe County
Peter White J.P.
Tweet
Pioneer farmer and religious leader, a native of Cornwall England, who settled on Lot 26, Concession 1, Vespra in 1819, (which location became known as White'd Corners, later Dalston). As a Methodist lay preacher, he conducted the first protestant service north of Lake Simcoe. The first log meeting house was erected on this lot in 1825. He was appointed municipal clerk for the area on January 2, 1837. He died January 29, 1876 in his 90th year, and rests in this cemetery (which is part of the original White homestead). "Let me die the death of the righteous and let my last end be like this."
