Yes.  Board minutes at sca.org have various references to groups being
a "Canton of the Barony of ...".  Corpora at
<http://www.sca.org/docs/pdf/govdocs.pdf> refers to "Canton: local
branch reporting through a barony" (as opposed to "Shire: local branch
reporting directly to a kingdom or principality"), and in
Administrative Sanctions, "in the case of Baronial or Canton Officers,
the Baronage must be informed as well", and in the description,
"Baronies and Provinces ... are alike in status and in the ability to
administer other branches within their borders ...".  There are other
references, like <http://www3.sca.org/officers/chatelaine/SCATeens.pdf>:
"Canton/March/Riding - Small local group that is part of a larger
umbrella group (Barony or Province)."
