Anne's Point") in 1732 by Acadians fleeing Nova Scotia after the British took over the territory (1710). When New Brunswick became a separate colony from Nova Scotia in 1784, Ste. Anne's Point became the provincial capital, winning out over Parrtown (present-day Saint John) due to its central inland location. A street plan was laid out to the west of the original townsite and the locale was renamed "Frederick's Town", in honour of the second son of King George III of the United Kingdom, Prince Frederick Augustus, Duke of York. The name was shortened to Fredericton shortly after the city became the official provincial capital of New Brunswick on 25 April 1785; 45.957319°N 66.647818°W 45°57ʹ00ʺN 66°40ʹ00ʺW)
