Nepean Township is a historical township in Eastern Ontario, Canada. Originally known as Township D, it was established in 1792. In 1800, it became part of Carleton County and was incorporated as a township in 1850. The first settler in the township was Jehiel Collins, from Vermont, who settled in an area near the Ottawa River which later became part of Bytown. Over the years, parts of Nepean Township were annexed by the expanding city of Ottawa. The original town hall of the township of Nepean was located in Westboro, which became part of Ottawa in 1949. A new town hall was built in Bells Corners in 1966. Nepean was incorporated as a city in 1978 and became part of the amalgamated city of Ottawa in 2001. Nepean Township took its name from Sir Evan Nepean, British Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department from 1782 to 1791. 〔http://www.nepeanmuseum.on.ca/sir_evan_nepean.htm The Nepean Museum〕 According to the Canada 2001 Census, the Township (original boundaries) had a population of 339,708. The 1850 boundaries of Nepean Township were the Ottawa River on the north, the Rideau River on the east, approximately along where Bankfield Road and Brophy Drive are today on the south, and approximately where Eagleson Road, March Road, and Hertzberg Road are today through to Shirleys Bay on the west. The township included much of what is now Ottawa, all of the former City of Nepean, and parts of the former City of Kanata. To the west of Nepean Township was Goulbourn and March Townships, to the east Gloucester Township, and to the south North Gower Township. ==Reeves== * 1850 - Frederick Bearman * 1850 - Chester Chapman * 1854 - John Scott * 1856 - George Bell * 1858 - Samuel Davison * 1862 - Nelson George Robinson * 1864 - Thomas Graham * 1865 - John Dawson * 1873 - Col.
