Saint Martins is a geographic parish in Saint John County, New Brunswick, Canada.[4]
For governance purposes the bulk of the parish is divided between the village of Fundy-St. Martins[5] and the Fundy rural district,[6] both of which are members of the Fundy Regional Service Commission.[7] A minor portion on the east resides in Fundy Albert, which is a member of the Southeast Regional Service Commission.[8]
Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided for governance purposes between the village of St. Martins and the local service district of the parish of Saint Martins,[9] both of which were members of the Fundy Regional Service Commission (FRSC).[10]
The Provincial Archives of New Brunswick gives only a possibility - St. Martins, Maryland,[11] which could refer to either Saint Martin or Saint Martins by the Bay,[12] both in Worcester County, Maryland.
Saint Martins was erected in 1786 as one of the county's original parish.[13]
In 1837 the eastern end of Saint Martins was transferred to Westmorland County.[14] The lost area is now part of Alma Parish in Albert County.
