History About 1837 is when the area adopted the name Georgetown. It was also the year that two of the Barber Brothers, William and James, purchased the mill and land from George Kennedy. Georgetown grew as new neighourhoods were added. The oldest section is around Main Street and Church Street. The arrival of the railway produced a new section - around King Street and Queen Street. The Delrex subdivision was the third part of the town that was added. Shortly after Delrex, Moore Park was developed. In 1989, the Georgetown South development began and the town has grown considerably since that point.
