An Irish Saint Traditional Cache

St. Malachy’s Roman Catholic Cemetery and Church served many Catholic pioneers  in Brock Township  who settled on an west /east area of farmland that extended from Vroomanton  east towards Manilla and north of Sunderland. In 1846 land was obtained from Sterling Pangman and Patrick Keenan for the church and cemetery. Vroomanton was a prosperous expanding settlement until the Toronto Nipissing Railroad by-passed it in 1868 and instead went through Sunderland.
