Which was probably named for the 'top hat general' (General Sir Thomas Picton one of the field commanders at Waterloo :o)

Likely this is so. Anything here in Canada that wasn't already named by the First Nations was named after Important (and usually dead or soon-to-be-so) English or French men (oh, and the odd woman. Regina comes to mind.)
