Wright's Town, Lower Canada

Wright's Town, also known as Wrightstown, Wright's Village, and Columbia Falls Village, was the first permanent colonial settlement in the Ottawa Valley, located at the north edge of the Chaudière Falls on the Ottawa River, on the southern part of what is now known as Hull Island, in present-day Gatineau, Quebec, Canada. Wright's Town was established by and named after American settler Philemon Wright, who settled in the area in 1800.

Though nothing remains of Wright's Town, its growth and legacy spurred the development of other settlements in the Ottawa Valley, including the settlement of Bytown across the river, which would eventually develop into the city of Ottawa, Ontario, the national capital of Canada.
