Ludlow is a geographic parish in Northumberland County, New Brunswick, Canada.Template:Refn
For governance purposes it is part of the incorporated rural community of Upper Miramichi,[1] which is a member of the Greater Miramichi Regional Service Commission (GMRSC).[2] Before the creation of Upper Miramichi in 1971,[3] Ludlow Parish was a local service district.[4][5]
Origin of name
Ludlow was named in honour of the Ludlow brothers.[6][7]
The Ludlow brothers were prominent Loyalist judges and members of the Executive Council of New Brunswick. George Duncan was appointed first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of New Brunswick,[8] while younger brother Gabriel George was first Mayor of Saint John;[9] both died in 1808. Carleton Parish, named for their political ally Thomas Carleton, first Governor of New Brunswick, was erected simultaneously.[10]
History
Ludlow was erected in 1814 from unassigned territory in the western part of the county plus a strip of Newcastle Parish.[10]
Ludlow included Blackville and Blissfield Parishes plus the western part of Kent County until 1830.[11]
Boundaries
Ludlow Parish is bounded:[12][13][14]
- on the north by a line beginning at a point on the York County line near McConnell Brook, then running north 72º east by an astronomic bearing to the northeastern corner of Blackville Parish, a point 537 chains (10.8 kilometres) from the Canadian National Railway line through Quarryville on a line running north 22º westTemplate:Refn from the mouth of the Renous River;
- on the east by a line running north and south from the mouth of Big Hole Brook, which is on the western edge of Doaktown;[lower-alpha 1]
- on the south by the Sunbury and York County lines;
- on the west by the York County line.
Evolution of boundaries
The eastern line of Blackville Parish, prolongated to Westmorland County, was the original eastern line of Ludlow,[10] putting most of Harcourt and Huskisson Parishes in Ludlow. The northern line was further south, putting much of Route 108 in Northesk Parish.
In 1830 Ludlow was split three ways, with the eastern part becoming Blackville Parish and the central part becoming Blissfield Parish, while the northern line was moved roughly where it is today.[11]
Changes in the wording of the boundary with Northesk Parish and later Southesk Parish in 1850,[15] 1877,[16] and 1954[17] made little if any difference in the parish line.
