From notes written some years ago by Mary Coburn "On August 16, 1931, by a congregational vote the name St. Andrew's was given".

Snake fence built of cedar rails laid out in a zig zag pattern was a typical fence type used by the early Harvey Settlers. The cedar was very hard to rot this making for a very durable fence. Few original examples remain as wire fences have been used since the end of WWII. The dry hollow rails make excellent kindling so most have be salvaged as fire wood. The fence has been reconstructed by Laverne Swan using salvaged rails that are probably at least 100 years old.
