AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

Peter Hvidsten 1 PORT PERRY’S FLOATING BRIDGE The first bridge to link Port Perry with Scugog Island was ricketty, unstable, and unreliable, but it was agreed by all, that the floating bridge was better than no bridge at all.

This all changed when William Purdy constructed a dam at what is now Lindsay. Purdy entered into an agreement with the government to build a saw mill and a grist mill on the Scugog River. Purdy’s dam and the saw mill were completed by September, 1828. The water eventually filled the millpond to capacity in April, 1829.

  • AN ENGRAVED SLATE POINT from SOUTHERN ONTARIO Richard B
    JOHNSTON: ENGRAVED SLATE POINT 23 AN ENGRAVED SLATE POINT FROM SOUTHERN ONTARIO Richard B. Johnston ABSTRACT A consideration and interpretation of a slate point bearing apparently notational engraving suggests that it may have been associated with Late Archaic ceremonialism. INTRODUCTION Some years ago a ground slate point was found north of Blairton, Ontario (Belmont Township, Peterborough County) in the shallow waters of the Crowe River a short distance north of Crowe Lake. It was a fortuitous and isolated discovery by a cottage owner, Mrs. H. J. (Joyce) Armstrong, presently of Peterborough, to whom I am indebted for her having brought the artifact to our attention and for subsequently depositing it in the collection of the Trent University Archaeological Centre (number 7PT23-1 from Borden location BcGk-4). What distinguishes this specimen from other slate points of the region and makes it of special interest is the extensive engraving cut into both faces of the point. THE POINT AND ENGRAVING The point is 124 mm in length, including a small allowance for damage at the tip, and has a maximum width of 32 mm near the base of the blade. The maximum thickness is 8 mm in the center of the midsection of the blade which has a lozenge-shaped cross-section with four flat external faces. The point weights 38.8 g and is made of a dark uniform slate; in terms of Munsell soil colours it would be described as very dark gray, approximating 2.5 YR 3/0. The form of the point is within the range exhibited by slate points of southern Ontario, although it is longer and narrower than average, while the base could be said to be atypical in that it is not the relatively long tapering or contracting stemmed form commonly seen on slate points.

  • Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River
    Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River Final Report May 2019 Executive Summary The primary goals of this study are to create hydrologic and hydraulic models of the watershed and produce flood plain mapping for Burnt River from the outlet to Cameron Lake to the hamlet of Burnt River. The mapping will allow the City of Kawartha Lakes and Kawartha Conservation staff to make informed decisions about future land use and identify flood hazard reduction opportunities. The Burnt River Flood Plain Mapping Study was subject to a comprehensive peer review for core components: data collection, data processing, hydrologic modeling, hydraulic modeling, and map generation. The process was supported throughout by a Technical Committee consisting of technical/managerial staff from Ganaraska Conservation, the City of Kawartha Lakes, and Kawartha Conservation. Topics discussed in this study include: • Previous studies in the area • Collection of LiDAR, bathymetry and orthophoto data • Proposed land use • Delineation of hydrology subcatchments • Creation of a Visual OTTHYMO hydrology model for Regional (Timmins) Storm • Calculation of subcatchment hydrology model parameters • Derivation of flow peaks at key nodes along the watercourse • Flood Frequency Analysis for the 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 year events • Creation of a HEC-RAS hydraulic model • Creation of flood plain maps Key elements of this study include: • The Timmins storm is the Regulatory Event for the watercourse • Flood plain maps are to be created based on the highest flood elevation of the calculated water surface elevations Key recommendations of this study: • The maps created from the results of the HEC-RAS model for Burnt River Creek should be endorsed by the Kawartha Conservation Board.

    SALERNO LAKE SENTINEL 2017 SPRING / SUMMER EDITION JUNE 2017 It’s about family, friends, community, relaxation, fun! Greetings After the winter of our discontent, of divisive politics, of deep ice encrusted snow and bitter cold, followed by a spring of endless rains and almost biblical plagues of mosquitoes and black-flies, we are now brightening our outlook. Summer is coming! The cottage roads are open again. Life is good. Welcome back to Salerno Lake (if you ever left….) Take a look at our SDLCA Events Calendar for this summer and mark the dates. There’s much to look forward to and it is our hope that you will participate. We have a terrific community here on Salerno Lake and you are an important part of it. The annual Canada Day Fireworks will be held this year on - gasp - Saturday July 1st, the actual Canada Day. That hap- pens only once every seven years… On July the 8th we have our very first Dock Sale AND our 7th Concert On The Lake at 6:30 PM featuring Kiyomi Valentine (McCloskey) a talented young woman who has a deep family connection to Salerno Lake. (Her sister Chloe was married here just last summer!) It’s also the summer of our 50th Annual Canoe Race, an incredible milestone in a long, storied tradition. And we will be holding the 2nd edition of the Youth Race for those 6-12 years of age. These events will be held on Sunday August 6th. The route of the Canoe Race is still to be determined due to the large log jam on the Irondale River.

Several small villages like Martintown in Glen- garry County are considerably over one hundred years old but most of the incorporated villages are of more recent date. Some early and thriving villages like Port Hoover on Lake Scugog in Victoria County have disappeared completely and many others fondly hoping for growth and prosperity have, due to location, the advent of railroads that passed them by, or other causes, failed to attain their ambition. Villages have become incorporated, grown into towns and these towns into cities but in most of these cases growth has been rapid and continuous and many still expand and add to their population year bv vear.
