Now one of the two principal villages in the municipality of West Elgin, the community of West Lorne is rooted in the history of the Talbot Settlement that came to the north shore of Lake Erie in the early 1800s. The community took hold with the arrival of the Canada Southern Railway in the 1870s.
It was first named Bismarck, after the German chancellor, and was later known as West Clayton, Dutton and Lorne before the village and train station finally settled on West Lorne after the turn of the century.The name was taken from the Lorne Mills, located south of the railway.
