A bronze plaque in front of the replica of the church reads,
"OLD WINDHAM UNITED CHURCH 1868-1963 - The Reverend Jabez Collver (Culver), one of the earliest Presbyterian Ministers to settle in Upper Canada, built a log house, possibly the first residence in Windham township, on this site about 1796. The building also served as a Presbyterian preaching place until Collver's death in 1818. Within two years it had been replaced by a Methodist Episcopal frame church. In 1868 this buildng was replaced by a larger brick structure, a New Connection Methodist Memorial Chapel, later known as old Windham United Church, of which this monument is a replica."
The Old Windham Cemetery is located on this historic property where many of the early pioneers of the Long Point Settlement are buried.
