Woodstock (New Brunswick) Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

town in Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada

About Woodstock (New Brunswick)

Little is known of the area before it was settled by disbanded veterans of De Lancey's Brigade following the American Revolutionary War. The veterans moved there in late 1783. 26,000 acres were granted to 110 men. Not all took up the offer, and of those who did, not all stayed. By 1790 only 23 families were present, and by 1804 only 10 of the original men had possession of the land. Around 1805, the town was home to several mills, and export of timber via the Saint John river began about this time. The town was the first in New Brunswick to be incorporated, in 1856. The first mayor was Lewis P. Fisher. He made provisions in his will for the building of several educational institutions, among them the first Agricultural and Vocational School in Canada, and the L.P. Fisher Public Library.
