History Of West Grey

West Grey has a rich history dating back to the Indigenous peoples who lived in the area long before European settlement. The area was first surveyed in 1837 and was named after the British politician Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey.

The first European settlers arrived in West Grey in the 1840s, mostly from Scotland, Ireland, and Germany. They cleared the land for farming and established small towns and villages such as Durham, Neustadt, and Hanover. The municipality's economy was primarily based on agriculture, particularly wheat and dairy farming.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, West Grey saw significant growth and development, with the construction of railroads and highways, as well as the establishment of schools and other public institutions.

During the world wars, West Grey played an important role in the war effort. Many young men from the area served in the military and a number of local facilities were used for training and other war-related activities.

In 2001, West Grey was formed as the result of the amalgamation of the towns of Durham, Neustadt, and the Township of Bentinck, the Village of Hanover, and the townships of Glenelg and Normanby. Today, West Grey is a thriving rural community with a strong agricultural base and a growing tourism industry.
