Studholm is a geographic parish in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada.[2]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, it formed the local service district of the parish of Studholm,[3] which further included the service area of Lower Millstream.[3] The local service district was a member of Kings Regional Service Commission (RSC8).[4]

Origin of name

[edit]

The parish was named in honour of Gilfred Studholme, a Loyalist military commander during the American Revolution,[5] who later settled in the area and served on the first Executive Council of New Brunswick.

History

[edit]

Studholm was erected in 1840 from Sussex Parish.[6] It included Havelock Parish.

In 1859 the eastern polling district was erected as Havelock Parish.[7]

In 1871 part of Havelock along Windgap Brook was returned to Studholm.[8]

Boundaries

  • on the northwest by the Queens County line;
  • on the east by a line beginning at a point on the Queens County line where the prolongation of the Miller Road strikes it, then south-southeasterly along the prolongation, Miller Road, and the southerly prolongation of Miller Road to Windgap Brook, then downstream until it strikes the prolongation of the southwestern line of a grant to James Caruth, which is on the southern bank of Windgap Brook and on the eastern side of Jordan Mountain Road, then southeasterly along the prolongation until it strikes the Cardwell Parish line;
