. 1841 Trafalgar Township Census,
Note1: "Originally written by Hazel Chisholm Mathews 28 September 1965
Warning relative to the 1st & 2nd Concessions N.D.S. & S.D.S.
Except in a few instances the enumerator failed to distinguish between North & South of Dundas Street. It has therefore been impossible for the copyist to be certain of the location of a large proportion of those lots lying in the 1st & 2nd Concessions.
Any question is best answered by referring to the Trafalgar Township Abstract Index at the Halton County Registry Office at Milton, Ontario. The first census of the Province of Upper Canada was taken in the year that it became Canada West, 1841.
About 1948 when the researching for the Oakville history was going forward, the 1841 Census of Trafalgar Township was discovered in the Public Archives of Canada at Ottawa. Unlike its successors which were recorded in ledgers, the data for this first census was written on a tremendous sheet of paper some 6 or 8 feet square.
Having seen little use, this sheet was then in very good condition & my sister, Dr. Juliet Chisholm, took a copy of much of the essential data. The names run down the left hand side, the headings across the top & these are divided perpendicularly & horizontally by lines forming a grid. The last time this census was seen it was so torn as to be almost unreadable. For this reason the following transcript was made of the data."

The Palermo Cemetery on Dundas Concession 1 SDS, Lot 29. A log church was built in 1812 on the low where the cemetery now is. The Wesleyan Methodists were first mentioned in an article in the Christian Guardian in 1851. Two frame churches stood on either side of the cemetery and can be seen on the 1858 Tremaine map. In 1867, 17 years before the general union of Methodist churches, they untied & built the present church. At the time of the union, a small minority continued to worship in the small frame church. Eventually it was closed & used as a stable. Two of the earliest burials listed are for Alexander Rose died Sept 27 1813 & Elizabeth Hager Feb 12 1815.
