St. Ann's Church in Penetanguishene was among the earliest Catholic Churches established in the county. Priests from this church serviced Barrie and other areas of Simcoe County well before these towns built their own churches. As a result, many birth, baptism, marriage and death records which took place in other parishes are contained on the microfilm for St. Anne's Church. You might want to consult this microfilm from the LDS Family History Center.
