St Thomas, was, I believe, the Anglican Parish & Cemetery. Getting no hits for it currently. Does anyone know if it still exists and, if so, what the url might be. I have a gggfather buried there c. 1849 and I hope there might be data in his record that enables clearing uo his burth details in N. Ireland c. 1790..

The Anglican Bishop of Montreal and the Bishop of Vermont initiated the Borders Regional Ministry in 2006. A few months back I was able to find a schedule which included a service at St Thomas. They will likely have a new schedule on line in the next few months, but this is the place to look. I last visited St Thomas in 1981. The lady next door came over with her key so we were able to see inside the church. She told me she had been present at my parent's wedding. It is sad that so few people are left in the area who would know much about the older families who once lived in Noyan. My grandfather left in 1885 to homestead in South Dakota. My father returned a generation later to marry a Noyan girl. It is good that there are so many dedicated volunteers in the Eastern Townships who are helpful to those of us who are a generation or more removed from life in Missisquoi.
