History
The City of Bromptonville and the Township of Brompton joined Sherbrooke Regional County Municipality on June 12, 1996. Until then, both had been parts of Le Val-Saint-François Regional County Municipality. They merged to form the new City of Bromptonville on December 30, 1998. Bromptonville merged into the new City of Sherbrooke on January 1, 2002 and became the borough of Brompton, but part of the former city was annexed to Stoke instead.
Dissolution
On January 1, 2002, all of the above except Waterville amalgamated into the newly expanded City of Sherbooke, as part of the 2001–2002 municipal reorganization in Quebec. Waterville remained independent and moved to Coaticook Regional County Municipality.
