Pickering Village, Ontario
Pickering Village is a community and former municipality in the Town of Ajax, Durham Region, Ontario, Canada. Originally located in Pickering Township, a community began to grow in 1807, when Quaker Timothy Rogers purchased 800 acres (3.2 km2) of land and brought a number of Quaker families to settle in the area. A post office was granted in 1829 and called Pickering. The village itself went under a number of names in the early years, including Canton and Duffins Creek, but eventually adopted the same name as the post office.
