History

The RM of Enniskillen No. 3 incorporated as a rural municipality on December 13, 1909. [2] Sam McKnight came to the area from Durham County, Ontario, and served as chairman of the organizing committee for the RM.[ citation needed ] He seemed to have had his heart set on a northern Irish name, since his committee proposed Enniskillen, Derry, Antrim, Boyne, Alma, Fermanagh and Waterloo.[ citation needed ] The government selected the first name on the list which honours Enniskillen (inis Ceithleann, "Ceithle's island"), the country town of Fermanagh, Northern Ireland.
