It became residential in the post war housing period in the late 1940s and 50s, when farmland was subdivided. [1] The first mayor of Darlington, was Richard W. Taylor who won by a landslide. He won a second term by acclamation, but died shortly after this. It was after this that it was amalgated with Dalhousie.
