From; A Brief History of Parish of Tecumseth (Simcoe County)
Rev A. C. Watt then took over the parish in 1895. A graduate of Trinity College in Toronto, Rev Watt was immediately embroiled in controversy as the Rural Dean proposed that Trinity and the Cookstown church form a new parish and that St. John's, St Pauls and Christ Church, Tottenham form another parish. The Trinity wardens, at a special vestry held at St. John's on April 15, 1895, didn't take too kindly to this proposal and entered their "most emphatic protest against an such change and will resist it to the utmost".
In this case, the wardens prevailed (sort of) and Trinity Bond Head formed a parish with St. John's while Christ Church, Tottenham and St. Pauls Beeton formed a second parish. This arrangement held until the
recent amalgamation that eliminated Trinity and St. Pauls churches.
Rev Watt's wife was quite as energetic as her husband forming the Women's Auxiliary in 1901, collecting money for a furnace for Trinity and building a fence around St. John's Cemetery.
