Reseña del libro "Stouffville Ontario Book 2 in Colour Photos: Saving Our History One Photo at a Time (en Inglés)"
On January 1, 1971, the Village of Stouffville amalgamated with Whitchurch Township and was designated a community within the larger town of Whitchurch-Stouffville, a municipality in the Greater Toronto Area, about fifty kilometers north of downtown Toronto. It is more than two hundred and six square kilometres in size, and located in the mid-eastern area of the Regional Municipality of York on the ecologically-sensitive Oak Ridges Moraine and the Rouge River watershed. Its motto since 1993 is "country close to the city".Stouffville is the primary urban area within the town of Whitchurch-Stouffville. It is centred at the intersection of Main Street, Mill Street and Market Street. Stouffville was founded in 1804 by Abraham Stouffer who built a sawmill and grist-mill on the banks of Duffin's Creek in the 1820s.Urban Stouffville stretches from the York-Durham Line to Highway 48 and is about 2.7 kilometers wide with development north and south of Main Street. Stouffville is bounded by farmland and a golf course. Uxbridge lies to the east.Stouffville Station was built in 1871 by Toronto and Nipissing Railway connecting Stouffville and Uxbridge with Toronto. The line's north-eastern terminus at Coboconk, Ontario on Balsam Lake in the Kawarthas was completed in 1872. In 1877, a second track was built from Stouffville north to Jackson's Point on Lake Simcoe. These connections were to provide a reliable and efficient means of transporting timber harvested and milled in these regions. Stouffville Junction serviced thirty trains per day. The railway became the Grand Trunk Railway in 1884, and Canadian National Railways took over the line in 1914. Stouffville Station was demolished in 1980s and replaced by current GO station.
