Description From Owner:

Pop. 1,020. In Brooke T., Lambton C., on the Sydenham R. and C. Rd. 76 & 79, 1.6 km. N of C. Rd. 80, and 60 km. SE of Sarnia. The place was settled in 1837 by Archibald Gardiner, who built a grist mill.
It was first called Gardiner's Mill. In 1846, Gardiner and others became converted to the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints.
They abandoned their homes and businesses and joined the Mormons in Salt Lake City, Utah. The settlement got a new lease on life as Brennan's Mills when J. W. Brennan built a mill.
Later, it was called Brooke's Mill. In 1854 the post office was named Alvinston after a village on England's Isle of Wight.
