Schomberg is accessed via Highway 9, which links Orangeville and Newmarket; via Highway 27 linking Barrie and Toronto; and the Lloydtown-Aurora Road. Its main street is York Regional Road 76, a curved avenue separate from the local major highways. HistoryThis area was occupied for thousands of years by varying indigenous cultures of First Nations peoples. Brownsville was founded by Irish settlers who had immigrated to Canada from Pennsylvania in the United States.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=116}} It was named for its founder, businessman Thomas Brown (born 13 May 1802), who was one of twelve siblings born in Pennsylvania, and one of four who emigrated to Upper Canada.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=10-11}} About 1830, his farmer brother John R. Brown (born 3 June 1811) settled on lot 26, concession 8, establishing the rural community.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=11}} Thomas built the community's only flour mill in 1836, stimulating development. The mill was eventually bought by their brother Garrett, who also established the first bank in the community.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=11}} For postal service, residents used the post office in the nearby community of Lloydtown. In 1861, the community applied for a post office, but was rejected because another post office with the name Brownsville was already in operation in York County. (That community is now part of Woodbridge in Vaughan.) In 1862, the community was renamed Schomberg, a name suggested by Thomas Roberts Ferguson,{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=14}} and its post office was established. The name was likely for The 3rd Duke of Schomberg and 1st Duke of Leinster, K.G. (1641-1719), a general under King William III of England.[2] On 6 June 1890, the town was one of many flooded as a result of a storm in the eastern United States and Canada.{{sfn|Los Angeles Herald|p=1}} The flood destroyed buildings, leaving many residents homeless and businesses ruined, and swept away two mill dams.{{sfn|Los Angeles Herald|p=1}} It also carried one building downstream, where it came to rest on a farm.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=18}} In Ontario, the storm also caused flooding in Barrie, Brooklin, Greenwood, and Orangeville.{{sfn|Los Angeles Herald|p=1}} On 25 March 1899, the community was established as a police village.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=23}} In 1902, the Traders Bank of Canada (now part of the Royal Bank of Canada) established the first commercial bank in Schomberg,{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=31}} and in January 1920 the Imperial Bank of Canada (now part of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce) established a branch.{{sfn|Love|Sawdon|p=32}} For some time in the early 20th century, the town was the terminus of the Schomberg and Aurora Railway that connected to the Toronto and York Radial Railway on Yonge Street, some distance to the east. The railway was constructed to bring shoppers and day-trippers from Toronto to the town, but was never very popular. Opened for traffic in 1902, it was electrified in 1916 and closed in 1927. The rails were removed the next year, but the right of way can still be seen to the east of the town. Urbanization of the community occurred primarily in the southwestern part, with small developments. In the 1950s and 1960s, housing was developed near the centre, and in the 1990s in the Roselena Drive area. Two developments in the 2010s added 147 detached homes, 52 semi-detached homes, 29 townhouses, and a 127-unit six-storey condominium.[3] ClimateSchomberg has a continental climate moderated by the Great Lakes and influenced by warm, moist air masses from the south, and cold, dry air from the north. The Oak Ridges Moraine affects levels of precipitation: as an air mass arrives from Lake Ontario and reaches the elevated ground surface of the moraine, it rises causing precipitation.[4] {{Weather box|location = Schomberg (1981–2010 normals) |metric first = yes |single line = yes |Jan record high C = 13.0 |Feb record high C = 14.5 |Mar record high C = 24.0 |Apr record high C = 30.0 |May record high C = 32.5 |Jun record high C = 35.5 |Jul record high C = 36.0 |Aug record high C = 35.6 |Sep record high C = 33.0 |Oct record high C = 27.0 |Nov record high C = 24.0 |Dec record high C = 20.0 |Jan high C = -3.0 |Feb high C = -1.8 |Mar high C = 3.1 |Apr high C = 11.2 |May high C = 18.4 |Jun high C = 23.7 |Jul high C = 26.3 |Aug high C = 25.0 |Sep high C = 20.2 |Oct high C = 13.5 |Nov high C = 5.8 |Dec high C = -0.1 |year high C = 11.9 |Jan mean C = -6.9 |Feb mean C = -5.9 |Mar mean C = -1.2 |Apr mean C = 6.3 |May mean C = 12.4 |Jun mean C = 17.6 |Jul mean C = 20.2 |Aug mean C = 19.0 |Sep mean C = 14.7 |Oct mean C = 8.6 |Nov mean C = 2.4 |Dec mean C = -3.4 |year mean C = 7.0 |Jan low C = -10.9 |Feb low C = -10.0 |Mar low C = -5.6 |Apr low C = 1.3 |May low C = 6.4 |Jun low C = 11.5 |Jul low C = 14.0 |Aug low C = 13.1 |Sep low C = 9.1 |Oct low C = 3.7 |Nov low C = -1.1 |Dec low C = -6.6 |year low C = 2.1 |Jan record low C = -36.0 |Feb record low C = -33.0 |Mar record low C = -29.0 |Apr record low C = -14.0 |May record low C = -4.0 |Jun record low C = -2.0 |Jul record low C = 2.5 |Aug record low C = 0.5 |Sep record low C = -6.5 |Oct record low C = -8.9 |Nov record low C = -22.0 |Dec record low C = -31.5 |precipitation colour = green |Jan precipitation mm = 52.9 |Feb precipitation mm = 47.9 |Mar precipitation mm = 52.3 |Apr precipitation mm = 59.9 |May precipitation mm = 72.8 |Jun precipitation mm = 79.8 |Jul precipitation mm = 85.1 |Aug precipitation mm = 89.7 |Sep precipitation mm = 81.7 |Oct precipitation mm = 69.7 |Nov precipitation mm = 72.4 |Dec precipitation mm = 52.1 |year precipitation mm = 816.1 |Jan snow cm = 33.3 |Feb snow cm = 25.7 |Mar snow cm = 19.2 |Apr snow cm = 4.2 |May snow cm = 0.0 |Jun snow cm = 0.0 |Jul snow cm = 0.0 |Aug snow cm = 0.0 |Sep snow cm = 0.0 |Oct snow cm = 1.6 |Nov snow cm = 13.3 |Dec snow cm = 27.8 |year snow cm = 125.1 |Jan precipitation days = 12.2 |Feb precipitation days = 9.4 |Mar precipitation days = 9.6 |Apr precipitation days = 11.8 |May precipitation days = 11.9 |Jun precipitation days = 10.9 |Jul precipitation days = 9.9 |Aug precipitation days = 11.3 |Sep precipitation days = 12.7 |Oct precipitation days = 13.1 |Nov precipitation days = 12.2 |Dec precipitation days = 10.1 |year precipitation days = 135.0 |source 1 = Environment Canada[5] |date=November 2018 }} DemographicsAs of the Canada 2011 Census, Schomberg was home to 2,321 residents in 892 dwellings,[6] an increase in population of 38.2% from the 1,679 residents counted in the Canada 2006 Census. CultureAn annual tradition is the Schomberg Fair, first held in 1851. It is an agricultural fair featuring a variety of events and activities. It is held every year on the last weekend in May. A more recent annual tradition is Main Street Christmas. This is held one evening in December, during which people celebrate the holiday season by listening to carols, going on hay rides, and viewing ice sculptures, among other things. Schomberg is home to the Schomberg Cougars, a Junior C hockey team playing in the Georgian Mid-Ontario Junior C Hockey League. The Schomberg Minor Hockey Association and the Schomberg Cougars are tenants of the Trisan Centre. The largest inuksuk is located in Schomberg. It was built by a local stone quarry as an attraction for commerce.[7][8] EducationSchomberg has two elementary schools: Schomberg Public School and St. Patrick's Catholic School. There is also a nursery school.
