Hibbert Newton Binney (1766‐1842) and Lucy Creighton. Belonged to prominent family in official, business and financial circles and which was a member of the Family Compact and strong Tories. Stephen's father Hibbert N. was a Collector of Impost and Excise. His mother, Lucy was the daughter of Hon. John Creighton. Stephen's eldest brother was Rev. Hibbert Binney, the father of Rt. Rev Hibbert N. Binney, Anglican Lord Bishop of Nova Scotia. Stephen married Emily Pryor (1808‐1890) on Oct 15, 1828 by Rector Robert Willis. Emily's father was William Pryor (1776‐1859), a Halifax merchant. They had seven children William Grant (1829‐1835), Hibbert Stephen (1832‐1842), Lucy Parker (b.1834), Emily (1837), Charles (1839‐1939), ,William Pryor (b.1840), and Irvine Whitty (b.1841) Both William and Irvine moved to Moncton with their parents. Stephen was elected during the civic elections to the first Halifax City Council and was elected Mayor by that same Council. He served as Mayor from October 1841 to March 1842. Mayor Binney clashed with Lord Falkland, when he was not invited to take a prominent part in the reception for the Prince and especially when he was not invited to the second dinner at the Government House to meet Prince de Joinville. Binney, Stephen Mayor 1841‐1842 Binney left for England on Jan 3, 1842 aboard the ship Columbia. He left Halifax on personal business but also managed to take responsibility upon himself to present the address of congratulation to the Queen on the birth of the Prince of Wales, much to the annoyance of the Lt. Governor in Halifax. When his leave of absence ended, Alderman Kenny was appointed Mayor to finish Binney's term. Binney returned Halifax in 1842. It is uncertain as to why Stephen Binney and his family moved to New Brunswick. On Nov 20, 1843, he purchased for 600 pound sterling ½ acre of land with a wharf and shipyard in Lewisville, 1 mile northeast of "The Bend", now Moncton. In addition to owning a shipyard, he also had ownership of wholesale businesses involved in lumber, flour and feed. He became a shipbuilder and prominent businessman. He built a house in suburban Lewisville overlooking his shipyard. He helped to establish the St. George Anglican parish, and was one of the first wardens. He died at his residence in Westmoreland County, NB on Jan 15, 1872. He was 67 years old.
