Sunday School Class from Humber Summit Congregational Church
This church was officially opened in 1859, with the first services being held in the evenings. It was located at the southwest corner of Vaughan Township, on Islington Avenue, north of Steeles Avenue. However, a toll gate was operational at Islington and Steeles and church members refused to pay to traverse the couple hundred feet. They therefore rented a property nearby to use for services. In 1934, the Pine Grove and Humber Summit congregations separated and in 1954, the name was changed to the Congregational Community Church. The photograph above displays the Sunday School Class from Humber Summit Congregational Church.
