A LITTLE OVER A HUNDRED YEARS AGO, a fellow from Ohio by the name of Matthews had gotten into the habit of bringing his family to Canada, to stay with friends at their Lewellyn Beach summer home, in a remote, far-away place called St. Joseph Island. The 1910 summer season proved to be a little different from earlier times. During his stay, Mr. Matthews noticed an interesting old house overlooking the Shoal Island Lighthouse. It had once been the ferry tender’s house, but was now vacant. Mr. Matthews knew he was seeing a true jewel in the rough. He bought the property and then his fancy was taken by another charming old house, just across the road – or so he thought! As it turned out, the other house was actually on another island! And so began a relationship between the Matthews fam- ily and St. Joseph Island that has grown and flour- ished ever since. Here, Mother Nature is a friend and ally, helping to shape Matthews Island to fit Since 1910, St. Joe and Matthews Island have been the taste and commitment of THIS gener- the ‘home away from home’ for generations of the ation of the Matthews family. Here, noth- Matthews family – including Mrs. Mary Ann ing is ever wasted. Everything gets Matthews, who in 1930, donated $35,000.
