Encyclopedia
Wentworth was a federal electoral district
represented in the Canadian
House of Commons
from 1904 to 1968. It was located near the City of Hamilton
in the province
of Ontario
. This riding was first created in 1903 from parts of Wentworth North and Brant

, Hamilton Mountain, Hamilton—Wentworth
and Wellington
ridings.
