Hillsborough is a civil parish in eastern Albert County, New Brunswick, Canada.Шаблон:Refn
For governance purposes, Hillsborough is divided between the village of Fundy Albert,[1] which includes most of the parish, and the Southeast rural district;[2] both are members of the Southeast Regional Service Commission.[3]
Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided between the village of Hillsborough[4] and the local service district of the parish of Hillsborough.[5]
Origin of name
Hillsborough was probably named in honour of the Earl of Hillsborough,[6] First Lord of Trade in 1765.
History
Hillsborough was originally established in 1765 as a township within Nova Scotia, a grant of 100 000 acres to Robert Cummings and four others[7] that included modern Hillsborough Parish and most of Coverdale Parish. In 1786 the township's boundaries were explicitly used for the newly erected Hillsborough Parish.[8]
Boundaries
Hillsborough Parish is bounded:[9][10][11]
- on the north by the northern line of a grant to Albert E. Rogers on the Petitcodiac River, about 120 metres south of the mouth of Stoney Creek, and its prolongation inland to a point about 2.6 kilometres east of Little River;
- on the east by the Petitcodiac River;
- on the south by the southern line of a grant to William Carlisle on the Petitcodiac River, about 2 kilometres north of the junction of Grub Road with Route 114, and its prolongation southwesterly for to a point Шаблон:Convert inland;
- on the west by a line running north 22º westШаблон:Refn to the prolongation of the Rogers grant.
Evolution of boundaries
Originally the western line of Hillsborough extended north to the Petitcodiac River west of Upper Coverdale.
In 1828 all of the parish north of a line running west from the mouth of Stoney Creek was erected as Coverdale Parish.[12]
The northern boundary was moved slightly south in 1850 to its modern starting point.[13] 1850 was also the first year the parish's southern and western boundaries were described without referring to the original boundaries of the pre-Loyalist township.
Municipality
The village of Hillsborough is on the Petitcodiac River, from south of Weldon Creek to north of Christopher Lane; the inland boundary is irregular, based partly on grant lines and partly on property lines of the late 1960s.[14]
Local service district
The local service district of the parish of Hillsborough included the entire parish outside the village of Hillsborough.[15]
The LSD was established on 23 November 1966 to assess for fire protection[16] following the abolition of rural governments by the new Municipalities Act. First aid & ambulance services were added on 17 November 1976.[17]
In 2020, the LSD assessed for community & recreation services in addition to the basic LSD services of fire protection, police services, land use planning, emergency measures, and dog control.[18] The taxing authority was 615.00 Hillsborough.
