Description From Owner:

• Pop. 865. In Tosorontio T., Simcoe C., on C. Rds. 5 & 13, 32 km SW of Barrie. The settlement was established in 1868 and a post office called Everett opened in 1869.
• When the Hamilton and North Western Railway came through the area in 1878, the post office and business establishments moved 3 km W to be on the rail line.
• The community is believed to have been named by the fIrst postmaster, Thomas Gordon, after his father's hometown in England.
• It may instead have been named for a farm or home, or distorted in the telling, because no Everett is shown on modern maps of Britain.
• From Ontario Place Names 2007 David E. Scott Ph. 866 471 4123 or 905 680 7884
