Encyclopedia > Glengarry County, Ontario

Glengarry County is a historic county in the Canadian province of Ontario.


Glengarry was created in 1792. The original territory of Glengarry also included Prescott County, which became a separate county in 1800.


Glengarry later merged with Stormont and Dundas to form the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry.

List of Ontario census divisions: Information From Answers.com (1017 words)
Counties have fewer responsibilities than regions, as the lower-tier municipalities (cities, towns, villages, townships) within the counties typically provide the majority of municipal services to their residents.
Counties may be as large as regional municipalities in population, but their population density is generally lower (although not as low as in a district.) Counties may include major cities, such as London, Kingston and Windsor, but these cities have generally not evolved into urban agglomerations with other communities, as in regions and "megacities".
Counties may also include separated municipalities, communities that are considered part of the county for census purposes but are not administratively connected to the county.
