Ada Mary HarrapPrint Page 
The plaque commemorates Ada Harrap, a lifelong member of the church who died in 1956.
Ada Harrap was born in Launceston in 1859, the second daughter of Alfred and Amelia Harrap. Ada was educated in Launceston. With her parents she attended St. John's Church and became a keen worker for the parish. She was very active in the works of charitable and philanthropic causes.
When in her late 70s, Ada suffered a slight accident which greatly affected her sight. This naturally curtailed many of her activities. She died at her Welman Street home on 31st January 1956, aged 97.
Some of her bequest to St. John's Church was used to advance the re-building of the organ. A brass plaque was erected beneath the organ front.
