170 ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 



St. Stephen, — C. Parish est. 1786. Includes the site of an early French 

 establishment Chartier, and the settlement of New Englanders at Scoodic 

 (site of the present town). Its principal settlement, however, was by 

 Loyalists; the present town and thence to the Old Ridge was settled 

 by the Port Matoon Association of Loyalists, while Milltown and the 

 river to Upper Mills were settled by the disbanded regiment, the 74th 

 Highlanders, west of which and on Mohannes Stream were the Pen- 

 obscot Association of Loyalists. 



The town of St. Stephen, at first called Morristoun, favoured by its 

 position at the head of navigation and near the fine water powers at 

 Milltown grew steadily; was incorporated in 1871, and has replaced its 

 declining lumber traffic by some manufacturing.
