AB - A systematic explanation of the probable sources of names of townships, cities, towns, villages, smaller localities, streams, rivers and lakes following the same plan as the author's previous study of Oxford County. The dates when places were named and the persons believed responsible are stated in most cases, and the places are located on a county map. The author mentions the renaming of Berlin as Kitchener during World War I but does not comment on alternative spellings for Conestogo and Hawkesville.
