Administrative history
St. John's Presbyterian Church, situated in Stornoway (Winslow Twp, Range I SE, lot 70), was formed in 1851 with the arrival of Scottish settlers in the township of Winslow. In 1876, St. Luke's Presbyterian Church in Hampden, Whitton, became independent of St. John's Presbyterian Church in Winslow. In 1920, due to reduced membership, the St. John's Presbyterian Church amalgamated with the Hampden-Milan pastoral charge. However, occasional services were held in St. John's Presbyterian Church in Winslow until 1923. St. John's Presbyterian Church in Winslow was under the jurisdiction of the Presbytery of Quebec of the Synod of Quebec and Eastern Ontario of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. The Church was governed by the congregation and the church's courts (board of managers and session) in co-operation with committees, societies, and organizations within the Church.

General note
Title based on contents of fonds.
The fonds was loaned in 1996 for 50 years by the Presbytery of Quebec of the Presbyterian Church in Canada.
The classification of the fonds is based on the file classification plan established by Sylvie Côté, ETRC Archivist, for local Presbyterian Church records. Individual churches do not all have records falling in each of the system's prearranged series, subseries, and files. This fonds is an example, as it comprises only five series out of a possible nine.
The documents are in English.
