North Gower Township, Ontario

North Gower Township is a historical township in eastern Ontario, Canada.
North Gower (pronounced "North Gor") was located in the southern part of Carleton County, bordered to the northwest by Goulbourn Township, to the north by Nepean, to the east by Osgoode and to the south by South Gower Township. It is separated from North Grenville and Osgoode by the Rideau River.
Originally known as Township C, it was established in 1792. In 1800, it became part of Carleton County and was incorporated as a township in 1850. The first settlers in the township were United Empire Loyalists. The township was first settled by Stephen Blanchard in 1820. The village of North Gower was first settled in 1846 and was originally known as Stephensville. The township merged with Marlborough Township in 1974 to become Rideau Township. Rideau, in turn, became part of the amalgamated city of Ottawa in 2001.
North Gower Township took its name from Admiral John Leveson-Gower, Lord of the Admiralty from 1783 to 1789. At one time, there was also a South Gower Township.
CHAPTER XXI.
SOUTH GOWER.
THIS township received its name in consequence
of being a triangular piece of land (gore), hence
Gower.

If South Gower's name came from "gore", an irregularly bounded piece of land then it's very likely that North Gower's name came from "gore".
According to the Canada 2011 Census, the former township had a population of 10,828 (former boundaries).〔Population calculated by combining populations of two census tracts: (5050200.02 ) and (5050201.00 ) 〕
