    Kettle Creek Little Free Library

    Not on Pleasant Street exactly, but that's the closest since this Little Free Library is located on…read morethe Saint Thomas Elevated Park where it crosses Pleasant Street. This is the second from this organization that I've seen today and like the other, it is in excellent condition. The library includes a large explanation on the side. It reads, "Before the name 'St. Thomas' took hold, the small settlement in this area was known as 'Kettle Creek Village', a reference to the waterway in the nearby valley. Daniel Rapelje was one of the original settlers and had a farm here, later laying out the plan of subdivision and making land available for the Church that was completed in 1824. Today, the Church is still standing and is referenced locally as 'Old St. Thomas Church'. After the Church opened, some visitors began referring to the community as 'Saint Thomas', which may have served also as an acknowledgement of Col. Thomas Talbot, the founder of the Talbot Settlement. Eventually, the post office in the area was named 'St. Thomas' and the name stuck. 'Kettle Creek Village' is the perfect name for this neighbourhood, recognizing the past as well as connecting to the waterway and ultimately the Great Lakes." Three shelves in this library, a little bare but the location probably doesn't get a lot of reading traffic. Mostly paperbacks which I tidied. All in good condition. The library is not in the Little Free Library database. [Review 1441 of 2024 - 119 in Ontario - 22464 overall]
