Description From Owner:

Pop. 139. In Dunwich and Southwold Ts., Elgin C. on C. Rds. 3 & 14, 23 km. SW of St. Thomas.
George Munroe surveyed the area around 1815 and named the community after the Holy Isle ofIona in Argyllshire off the west coast of Scotland.
The settlement straddled the town line and the Dunwich side was called Elliottsville for Sarah Elliott who had donated land for a Methodist church.
Iona/Elliottsville was an important wagon stop for traders between Niagara and Amherstburg and the population reached 700 by 1870.
Two years later the Michigan Central Railroad built its line 3 Ian NW of lona and named its station Iona Station. Businesses followed the railway and lona's population dwindled.
