Morris-Turnberry, Ontario

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Municipality of Morris-Turnberry is a municipality in Huron County, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the north portion of Huron County, near the Bruce County border, southeast of Wingham.

It was formed as an amalgamation of the former Morris and Turnberry townships in 2001 in an Ontario-wide local government restructuring imposed by the government of that time. The two former townships now comprise the wards of the amalgamated municipality.

Morris-Turnberry's only significant settlement is Bluevale, located at the junction of Huron Roads 86 and 87 east of Wingham. It borders on communities that are under neighbouring municipalities such as Blyth, Belgrave, Brussels and Wingham.

Bluevale is where Elias Disney was born in 1859 - the father of Walt Disney.
