And this project will allow him to combine that interest with a contribution to the 150th anniversary. He has already spent 12 days at the United Church Archives in Toronto during the summer and will be going through local records at the museum and library. Mr. Ball has learned for example, that the original church building was located located on Prospect St., near the Canadian Pacific Railroad. Railroad. It wasn't until 1871 that the current church building was completed by an architect named Thomas Johnson. Records from 1851 reveal that the church had 100 members, with attendance attendance averaging 250. Of course, there was no United Church at the time St. Paul's was founded. It was a Presbyterian church which became part of the United Church community in 1925. Mr. Ball hopes that the finished history will consist of a hard-cover book containing containing about 100 pages and plenty of photographs. He adds that the research is the hardest part of the project, especially research research into events occurring occurring before 1870. That's why he's asking for some assistance assistance from the public in producing producing the book. We may never know why there are dolphin gargoyles in a Bowmanville church thousands of miles from salt water. But the upcoming history of St. Paul's should make interesting reading for both St. Paul's members and the general public alike. In an interview last week, Mr. Ball also noted that many other special events are planned during the 1984 anniversary celebrations. These will begin with a New Year's Eve Service to mark the beginning of the 150th anniversary. A homecoming homecoming is planned during the year, along with special speakers, and other events.
