County of Dunbarton : ウィキペディア英語版
Dunbartonshire


Dunbartonshire (''Siorrachd Dhùn Bhreatainn'' in Gaelic) or the County of Dumbarton is a lieutenancy area and registration county in the west central Lowlands of Scotland lying to the north of the River Clyde.
It was a county used as a primary unit of local government with its county town and administrative centre at the town of Dumbarton. In 1975 the administration section was transferred to the Council.
The area had been previously been part of the historic district of Lennox, which was a duchy in the Peerage of Scotland related to the Duke of Lennox.
==Name==
Dumbarton comes from the Scottish Gaelic ''Dùn Breatainn'' meaning "fort of the Britons".
Historically, the spelling of the county town and the county were not standardised. By the 18th century the names "County of Dunbarton" and "County of Dumbarton" were used interchangeably.〔See for instance ''Crown Lands - Forfeited Estates Act, 1784'' (1784 c. 57) and ''Manning of the Navy Act, 1795'' (1795 c. 29)〕
Different county bodies used the two spellings: the Dunbarton County Constabulary were formed in 1857 by the Commissioners of Supply for the County of Dunbarton.〔''Edinburgh Gazette'', Issue 6736, published 15 September 1857〕
Dumbartonshire County Council, set up under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889, adopted the spelling "Dunbartonshire" by 1914, a fact recognised by the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1947.〔''Edinburgh Gazette'', Issue 12743, published 24 November 1914〕〔Local Government (Scotland) Act 1947 (1947 c. 43)〕
