Bathurst, New Brunswick

Bathurst (2011 population; UA 12,275; CA population 13,424) is the County seat for Gloucester County, New Brunswick, and is at the estuary of the Nepisiguit River.〔(New Brunswick Provincial Archives - Bathurst )〕
==History==

Bathurst had been the location of the annual Mi'kmaq summer coastal community of Nepisiguit prior to European settlement. Early settlers from France came to the area in the 17th century in what became part of the colony of Acadia. Following the fall of this part of Acadia to British control in the Seven Years' War, the region saw the arrival of numerous English and Scottish settlers, particularly during the latter 18th century through to the 20th century, such as Hugh Munro, around 1800 founder of “the first and most ancient establishment” in the timber trade of Nepisiguit Bay.〔(DCB: "MUNRO, HUGH" )〕 In 1807 Munro was appointed a justice of the peace and judge of the Inferior Court of Common Pleas for Northumberland County,〔 and in 1828 was elected to sit in the 9th New Brunswick Legislature when the county of Gloucester was given its first representative.
The community, which up to that point had been named St. Peters,〔 was renamed by the Governor, Sir Howard Douglas (1823–1831), in honor of Henry Bathurst, 3rd Earl Bathurst (1762–1834), Secretary of State for the Colonies of the British government.
The Annual Report of the Department of Fisheries for 1868 lists a so-called "Marine Hospital" located in Bathurst, and the place of work for a Fisheries Officer. Bathurst once had a fish processing plant. Navigation in this County consisted of the carrying of wood, fish and grindstones from Bathurst to Britain, ports of the Dominion, Newfoundland, Miquelon, the United States, South America and Italy. In the wood trade, Bathurst employed in 1868 vessels of from 50 to 1,200 tons. The beacons at that time were unlit, a cause of some concern.〔(dfo-mpo.gc.ca: "Annual Report, Department of Fisheries" )〕
In 1871 Bathurst had a population of 600.〔
The opening of the Intercolonial Railway of Canada in 1876 provided a fast connection from the port of Bathurst to the rest of North America which was essential for developing the region's principal industries in forestry and zinc mining.
In 1881, the Roman Catholic Church constructed the Sacré-Coeur Cathedral.
In 1904 Bathurst was a seaport, a port of entry on the Intercolonial Railway and the Caraquet and Gulf Shore Railway and a town with a post office, 35 stores, six hotels, a steam sawmill, a shingle mill, a flour mill, three fish freezers, two carriage factories, a printing shop, three churches and a population of 3,000.〔
Bathurst was incorporated as a town in 1912.〔
The Bathurst Power and Paper Company Ltd. built a mill in Bathurst, New Brunswick in 1914. Majority control of the company was obtained in the late 1930s by Arthur J. Nesbitt and his partner Peter A. T. Thomson through their holding company, Power Corporation of Canada. In the early 1960s, Power Corporation bought the Consolidated Paper Company. When Paul Desmarais acquired control of Power Corporation in 1968, the two companies were merged to become Consolidated-Bathurst Inc. In 1989, the company was sold to Stone Container Corporation of Chicago, Illinois who renamed it Stone Consolidated Inc.
Bathurst was incorporated as a city in 1966.〔(archives.gnb.ca: "Where is Home? New Brunswick Communities Past and Present - Bathurst" )〕

The trophy was retired to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1990
