Torbolton Township

Torbolton is a geographic township and former municipality that was originally part of Carleton County in eastern Ontario, Canada.

Although white pine was harvested from the forests of this area from the beginning of the 19th century, the first permanent settler is believed to have been David MacLaren in the 1820s.

In 1974, the township was amalgamated with Huntley and Fitzroy to form West Carleton.

Lord Torbolton was one of the titles of Charles Lennox, 4th Duke of Richmond, who was Governor General of British North America from 1818 to 1819.
