Summary edit

Description
English: "Town of Niagara

Known at various times as Butlersburg, West Niagara and Newark, its first permanent settlers, including Butler's Rangers and other loyalists, arrived about 1780. The first five sessions of Upper Canada's Legislature met here under Lieutenant-Governor Simcoe between September 17th, 1792, and June 3rd, 1796. The town was captured by American forces May 27th, 1813, which burnt it during their withdrawal December 13, 1813. It was the administrative and judicial centre of the Niagara District and Lincoln County until 1866."
