Cardwell County, Ontario - Definition

Cardwell County is a historic county in the Canadian province of Ontario.

Cardwell was a division used by the federal government as an electoral district in Canada's early parliaments from 1867 to 1903. It was never a county in the political sense, although is listed as a county of residence in some post-Confederation census records.

Cardwell consisted of the Simcoe County townships of Adjala and Mono, and the Peel County townships of Albion, Bolton and Caledon.
