Cotton Mill; The community was founded by Alexander Gibson in 1886 and named after his wife Mary. Gibson built up several industries in Marysville, most notably a cotton mill (1883). A large number of brick duplexes were built around the mill, most of which are still standing. Marysville was named a National Historic District in 1997 for being one of Canada's last intact 19th-century mill towns. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 2/7/2008)
