Lancaster was originally five unincorporated communities – Beaconsfield, Fairville, Milford, Randolph, and South Bay.[2] These five communities unified by incorporating as the City of Lancaster on January 1, 1953.[2] Its first mayor was T. B. Horsler.[3] Fourteen years later, Lancaster amalgamated with Saint John on January 1, 1967.[2] The area in which it had been located now consists of the neighbourhood of Saint John West.[4]
