Westfield is a geographic parish in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada. [2]
Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it was divided between the town of Grand Bay-Westfield and the local service district of the parish of Westfield, [3] both of which were members of the Fundy Regional Service Commission (FRSC). [4] Westfield included the taxing authorities of Westfield East and Westfield West, which are sometimes erroneously described as LSDs in their own right.
The parish may have been named for the town of Westfield in Massachusetts.
Notable is that the names of Kings County's pre-1800 parishes all occur in both New Jersey and North Carolina. [5]
Westfield was erected in 1786 as one of the original parishes of the county. [6]
The 1795 reorganisation of the county [7] affected the boundary on the Kingston Peninsula.
In 1896 the boundary on the Long Reach side of the Kingston Peninsula was altered slightly. [8]
