Ernestown Township, Ontario
- Ernestown Township, Ontario
Ernestown is a historic township in Lennox and Addington County in eastern Ontario. It was originally known as Second Town because it was surveyed after Kingston Township, but was renamed in 1784 after Prince Ernest Augustus, fifth son of George III. In 1998, it became part of Loyalist Township.
Shortly after the American Revolution, some former members of Jessup's Rangers settled in this area. The town of Bath, originally part of this township, was an important centre for shipbuilding in Upper Canada.
