"Note. School site is as shown below, the original...amended" "by cancelling Lots 1-10 & 27-30 inc....order of court filed No.4938".
History
The school was named after Hugh B. Gilmour, but an error by a municipal clerk in the Street Naming Bylaw in 1912 (Bylaw Number 135) changed the spelling to "Gilmore" Avenue and the school name was spelled "Gilmore" Avenue School hereafter.
