Aberdeen is a geographic parish in Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada,[1] located in the interior east of the Saint John River.

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it was comprised two local service districts (LSD),[2] both of which were members of the Western Valley Regional Service Commission (WVRSC).[3]

The Census subdivision of Aberdeen Parish shares the geographic parish's borders.[4] Revised census figures based on the 2023 local governance reforms have not been released.

Origin of name

Aberdeen, Scotland was the source of many settlers of Glassville Settlement.[5] Also possible is that the parish was named in honour of either the Earl of Aberdeen,[6] a former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom who died shortly before Glassville was settled, or his youngest son Arthur Hamilton-Gordon, who was Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick when the parish was erected.[5]

History

Aberdeen was erected in 1863 from Brighton, Kent, and Peel Parishes.[7] Most of the parish had formed the southeastern part of Kent, with Peel and Brighton providing a strip of territory along their northern edge.

Boundaries

Aberdeen Parish is bounded:[1][8][9]

  • on the west by the western side of grants running along the Ketchum Ridge, West Glassville, Old West Glassville, Shikatehawk, and Denney Hill Roads;
  • on the north by the north line of a grant on the Denney Hill Road prolonged to the York County line;
  • on the east by the York County line;
  • on the south by the southern line of a grant southwest of the intersection of the Black Brook and Ketchum Ridge roads, prolonged to the York County line.

Evolution of boundaries

The original boundaries of Aberdeen have changed little, unusual among Carleton County's parishes.

In 1896 the northwestern corner and northern boundary were changed to better match grant lines, taking a long narrow triangle of territory from Kent Parish while losing a few acres in the northwestern corner.[10]

In 1956 the western boundary was altered slightly, transferring a Crown Reserved RoadTemplate:Refn to Kent Parish.[11] This may have been an error, as the same Act corrected two wording errors that dated to 1896.

Local service districts

Both LSDs assessed for the basic LSD services of fire protection, police services, land use planning, emergency measures, and dog control.[12]
