 A later plan of the town used in the Surveyor-General's Dept included a sketch of this building labelled as "Church & School".One of the schoolhouse pupils of this period was Fred Ward, born in Windsor in 1835, who later adopted the alias Captain Thunderbolt as the last of the professional bushrangers of NSW.The schoolhouse was no longer used as a church after the new St John's Church was completed in 1859.
