Digby County is a county in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. Taking its name from the Township of Digby (), which had been named in honour of Rear Admiral Robert Digby who dispatched HMS ''Atalanta'' to convey loyalists from New York City in the spring of 1783 to Conway, which became known as Digby, Digby County was established in 1837. Previously, from August 17, 1759, when Nova Scotia was first divided into counties, this area had been part of Annapolis County. In 1861, Digby County was divided into two districts: the District of Digby and the District of Clare. In addition to these two districts, the county contains the town of Digby and part of the Bear River Indian reserve. Also, there is Digby Neck leading into the Bay of Fundy to Long Island and Brier Island. ==Demographics== Population trend〔Statistics Canada: 1996, 2001, 2006 census〕 Mother tongue language (2011)〔Statistics Canada: 2011 census〕 Ethnic Groups (2006)〔(2006 Statistics Canada Census Ethnocultural Portrait of Canada: Digby County, Nova Scotia )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Digby County, Nova Scotia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
