Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it was divided between the village of Harvey and the local service district of the parish of Manners Sutton,[3] both of which were members of the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission (SNBSC).[4]
The parish was named in honour of John Manners-Sutton, 3rd Viscount Canterbury,[5] Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick at the time. Canterbury Parish was erected at the same time.
Manners Sutton was erected in 1855 from Kingsclear and Prince William Parishes.[6]
