About the original
CreatorSnowball, Ralph, 1849-1925
InformationInformation supplied by The Lake Macquarie and District Historical Society states that the pagoda shaped roof was built for James Hadydon Leslie Arnott in 1911. Ralph Snowball retired from photography in 1915 and passed away in 1925. It is most likely this picture was taken between 1911 and 1915, but may have been taken between 1911 and 1925. Toronto is the site of Rev. L Threlkeld's second mission called Ebenezer Mission. He took up occupancy in December 1831. Threlkeld's grant covered the area of the modern day suburbs of Toronto, Carey Bay, Kilaben Bay and Coal Point. In 1845 the land was sold to Ralph M Robey, who sold it to the Excelsior Land Investment and Building Company and Bank in 1885, who subdivided the land in 1887. Toronto is named in honour of Edward Hanlon, a champion rower form Toronto, Canada, who was visiting Australia at the time the estate was being subdivided.
