Ayr is located within the Township of North Dumfries in the Regional Municipality of Waterloo. The village Ayr was originally a group of settlements, Mudge's Mills in the centre, Jedburgh to the east and Nithvale to the west, that eventually combined into one as they expanded. The name Ayr was first used in 1840 when it was assigned to the post office. The first settlement was in 1824 when Abel Mudge constructed a sawmill and flour mill at the intersection of Stanley and Northumberland, at the Nith River. The site became known as Mudge's Mills. Jedburgh was founded by John Hall from Scotland in 1832. He built a flour mill and a distillery. Nithvale was founded during the early 1830s when a flour mill and two sawmills were opened.
