The Methodists of that day were very interested in establishing higher learning institutions for young women. Rev. J. E. Sanderson convinced the Town of Whitby that this would be extremely beneficial to its economy. James Holden, Esq. founder of the Dominion Bank, a local politician and businessman (with 5 daughters of his own) supported this idea. Sanderson and Holden were instrumental in raising the money and shares for the purchase of the castle and the establishment of Ontario Ladies' College. Trafalgar Castle hosted its share of royalty and dignitaries through the years. Both as Reynolds' residence, then as Ontario Ladies' College and now as Trafalgar Castle School. SEE ALSO
