5th New Brunswick Legislature

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 5th New Brunswick Legislative Assembly represented New Brunswick between January 27, 1810, and 1816.

The assembly sat at the pleasure of the Governor of New Brunswick Thomas Carleton. Carleton having left the province in 1805, the colony was actually governed by a series of colonial administrators during this period.

The speaker of the house was selected as Amos Botsford. After Botsford's passing in 1813, John Robinson was appointed speaker.
