Most of the early settlers were of Scottish, Irish, and English origin, not necessarily in that order. A smaller but important contingent of first settlers were from France, Germany, Poland, and Italy -- most of whom were veterans of mercenary regiments (DeWatteville Regiment) that received land grants from the British army after the War of 1812.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerth, the county town, was established as a military settlement in 1816, becoming widely known as the \"Perth Military Settlement\".
