St. Catharines Ontario derived its name from Robert Hamilton, whose wife's name was Catherine.
Hamilton had opened the first business in the area (a goods storehouse) between 1783-1786.
In 1808 the name "St. Catherines" appeared on a survey, followed by the the local Post Office.
In 1819, a fire destroyed much of the village and up until then the town name was spelled St. Catherines.
However, after rebuilding in 1821, the town name was officially being spelled St. Catharines (for reasons unknown).
