St. Jacobs, Ontario

The community of St. Jacobs is located in southwest Ontario, just north of Waterloo in Woolwich Township, Waterloo Region. It is a popular location for tourism,〔Hohol, Frances (1984). ''(Communities in transition: Elmira and St. Jacobs, Ontario: A study of resident and retailer attitudes toward tourism )'' (M.A. thesis) Wilfrid Laurier University〕 due to its Mennonite heritage and retail focus. The Conestogo River, which powered the village's original gristmill, runs through the village. St. Jacobs has a growing population of 1,891 people.

==History==
St. Jacobs was settled in 1820 and officially named in 1852. St. Jacobs was first known as "Jakobstettel" which means "Jacob's Village" or "James's Village".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://magiccarpetjournals.com/St_Jacobs.htm )〕 The ''St.'' was added to the name simply to make it sound more pleasing and the pluralization was in honour of the combined efforts of Jacob C. Snider (1791–1865) and his son, Jacob C. Snider, Jr. (1822–1857), founders of the village. The younger Jacob lost his life in the Desjardins Canal train disaster at age 35.
St. Jacobs' development as a thriving business community throughout the 1800s with such businesses as a felt factory, tannery, glue factory, flour mill, saw mill, and furniture factory. The village served the needs of surrounding pioneer farm settlements. Situated on Arthur Road, St. Jacobs boasted four hotels by 1852. One of these - today's Benjamin's Restaurant and Inn - is still operating today. Benjamin's was first named the Farmers Inn and was for many years, also known as the Dominion Hotel.
