A Township in Ontario Is Usually Rectangular in Shape, Unless It Borders a Major River Or Lake. Townships Are Divided Into Concessions A township in Ontario is usually rectangular in shape, unless it borders a major river or lake. Townships are divided into concessions. Each concession is a strip of land 1 and 1/4 mile wide. Concessions can run in any direction and are usually separated by a road. Concessions are numbered with Roman Numerals (V, IV, etc). When concessions do not run the length or width of the township because of water, they are usually labelled with letters (A, B, etc). A gore is a part of a township that does not fit into the regular shape. Concessions are divided into lots that use Arabic numbers (3, 4, etc). Originally lots were 200 acres, which could then be easily divided into parcels of 100 acres. The lots ran parallel to the road. http://digital.library.mcgill.ca/countyatlas/ 1885 PEEL COUNTY, ONTARIO http://www.rootsweb.com/~canon/locator/1885peel.html MAP OF PEEL COUNTY, ONTARIO, CANADA: source: William Perkins Bull, From medicine man to medical man : a record of a century and a half of progress in health and sanitation as exemplified by developments in Peel , Toronto The Perkins Bull Foundation, George J.

Part of Home District until 1851. Townships (post-1851): Albion, Chinguacousy, Toronto Gore, Caledon, & Toronto Peel County http://members.aol.com/Winfieldpb /peelinfo.htm DIRECTORY OF THE COUNTY OF PEEL 1873-4 LIMITS OF THE COUNTY The County of Peel comprises the townships of Toronto, Toronto Gore, Chinguacousy, Caledon and Albion, with the incorporated villages of Brampton, in the Township of Chinguacousy, Streetsville, in Toronto, and Bolton, in Albion. Although in extent one of the smallest counties of Ontario, it is not inferior to many in natural advantages. It lies on the north shore of Lake Ontario, with an excellent harbor, Port Credit, in the centre of its front. From Port Credit runs Hurontario Street in a north westerly direction through the centre of the Townships of Toronto, Chinguacousy and Caledon, to the north-west part of Caledon near the village of Orangeville, and thence to the town of Collingwood on Lake Huron. With Lake Ontario in the front, the County is bounded on the East by the County of York, on the north by the Counties of Simcoe and Wellington, and on the west by the Counties of Wellington and Halton. FIRST SETTLEMENT In giving a full description of the County of Peel, it would seem proper to give some account of its origin and first settlement, and in doing this it will be necessary to go back to the last century. The territory now comprising the County of Peel about eighty years ago formed part of a large district, which has, by a variety of changes, dwindled down to its present limits. The first subdivision in which this part of the country was concerned-when it formed part of the Province of Quebec-was by a Proclamation of Lord Dorchester, then Governor General, dated 24th July, 1788, dividing the Province so that what was afterwards Upper Canada was divided into four districts, which, counting from the east, were named Lunenburgh, Mecklenburgh, Nassau, and Hesse. Nassau,-afterwards called the Home District-extended from the mouth of the River Trent, Bay of Quinte, "so far westerly as to a north and south line intersecting the extreme projection of Long Point into Lake Erie." In the first session of the first parliament of Upper Canada the name of these districts were altered to Eastern, Midland, Home and Western. This was a pretty extensive district, and as our particular locality is not mentioned in official documents for some years afterwards, it will be necessary to take notice of some of the proceedings in other parts of the district. On the 27th July, 1793, an Act was passed fixing the places for holding the Courts of Quarter Sessions, in which it was enacted that the Courts for the Home District should be holden in the town of Newark, Niagara, and, - but this does not concern us - the Courts for the Western District at Michilimackinac! When the Province of Quebec was divided into Upper and Lower Canada, and Governor Simcoe assumed the government of Upper Canada, he issued a proclamation dated at Kingston, 16th July 1792, laying out the Province into nineteen counties, of which the County of York was one, divided into two ridings, east and west, the East Biding extending from the County of Durham to the eastern boundary of what is now the County of Peel, and the description of the West Riding is indefinite; but it is not now of much importance.
