Administrative history
Rockway Presbyterian Church (St. Catharines, Ont.) was organized on October 9, 1809 by the Rev. Daniel Ward Eastman under the name First Louth Presbyterian Church. There was disruption in the services during the wars of 1812-1815. In 1824 the Presbyterian and Episcopalian congregations built a common building for worship called a Union Church. Louth was a united congregation with Pelham as early as 1841. This union remained and in 1900, North Pelham, Louth, and Fenwich became a three point charge. This continued until 1946 when Fenwich closed. Louth chose to remain with The Presbyterian Church in Canada during the time of Church Union in 1925. In 1955, Louth became a self sustaining congregation. In 1963, the name was changed to Rockway Presbyterian Church.
