Alderman

December 6, 2007

Alderman

An alderman is a member of a municipal assembly or council in many jurisdictions. The title is derived from the Anglo-Saxon position of ealdorman, literally meaning “elder man,” and was used by the chief nobles presiding over shires.

“Board of Aldermen” is the governing body of many jurisdictions in the United States. In these jurisdictions, the term is used instead of city council and its members are called “Alderman” or “Alderwoman”.
