From the early to mid 1800s, the Anglican congregation living in the Dundas Street area shared both a chapel and cemetery with other Protestant settlers, worshipping at the now historic Dixie Union Chapel.
In 1870, the Anglicans built their own brick church to the east of Dixie Union Chapel and named it St. John the Baptist (Dixie). That same year, the Dixie Union Cemetery was divided. The original pioneer section lies beside and directly to the north behind the old Stone Church and remains known today as Dixie Union Cemetery . The land east of an old laneway (which ran parallel with Cawthra Road) and behind St. John the Baptist Anglican Church (Dixie) became St. John the Baptist Anglican Cemetery.
St. John the Baptist Anglican Cemetery expanded in 1954 with the purchase of an additional 8 acres and presently occupies approximately 10 acres on the north side of Dundas Street, just east of the Dixie Union site.
Today the cemetery is known as St. John's Dixie Cemetery and it continues to serve the Mississauga community with a modern funeral center and crematorium.
