History:
Nelson Township (area 46,236 acres (72 sq mi; 187 km2)) Opened in 1806 and named in honor of Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson. Community center: Burlington.
Nelson Township is a former township in Halton County in Ontario, Canada. It was opened for settlement in 1806 and named in honor of Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson. The township was the earliest settled portion of Halton County. Back in 1800, the Bates family settled there and the first white child to see the light of day in the township or county was Augustus Bates. Its main population center was Burlington, but it also included the villages of Nelson, Appleby, and Cedar Springs. On January 1, 1958, Burlington officially annexed most of the Township of Nelson, as well as Aldershot, formerly a part of East Flamborough Township. In 1973 when Halton County was reorganized into the Regional Municipality of Halton, Nelson Township was amalgamated into the City of Burlington.

Martin Street PS
One might think that Martin Street Public School (Milton’s first school built in 1920), formerly Martin Street Middle School, formerly Milton High School, was so named because it was located on Martin Street. This was not entirely so, as you will see below. Martin Street Public School is named after an early settler to the region, Mr. Jasper Martin.
This town of Milton took root out of a settlement started by Jasper Martin in the early 1800s. Mr. Martin, immigrated from Newcastle, England, with his wife Sarah and two sons on May 17, 1818. He was granted 100 acres (405,000 m.) of land from the Crown in 1820, designated Lot 14, Concession 2, Township of Trafalgar, Halton County, in the District of Gore. During this time, there were two principal property owners in the young town – the Martins and the Fosters. Each of these founding families has provided names for several local landmarks that mark our heritage. Both have schools named after them!

P. L. Robertson Public School
In the early 1900’s, Milton inventor and businessman Peter Lymburner Robertson (1879-1951) established the Robertson Manufacturing Company in the town of Milton and began producing the Robertson screw and screwdriver – at the time, a unique square recess impression in the head of a screw. It was a revolutionary change in the fastener industry. The first patent was issued in 1909 and the last patent expired 55 years later in 1964. His firm was the largest employer in Milton for more than 50 years. Robertson screws and screwdrivers carry his name to this day. An innovator, industrialist and astute businessman, Robertson’s products became widely used, from the wooden bodyworks of Henry Ford’s model T to ships built by the British Navy in WWII. Robertson Manufacturing Company also became one of the first firms in the fastener business to pre-package screws and nails. Robertson’s 40-year career transformed the Haldimand Country farm boy into a millionaire-philanthropist. He remained in control of his company until his death in 1951. For information: Contact the P. L. Robertson Public School at905-878-3166.
