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.

    From an idea on a rented houseboat in 1981, Lloyd and Helen Ackert and their family created Ontario Waterway Cruises Inc. Success has flourished due largely to the personal interest and enthusiasm of a family operated business. In 1993, Lloyd and Helen retired. Two of their sons, Marc and John alternate as captain aboard ship. Marc/Robin and John/Joy share the various responsibilities of managing the business. Robin manages the hospitality functions and Joy manages reservations. The history of this successful cruise operation for older adults can be found in the ship’s library. Passengers enjoy browsing the albums which trace its development from the time that this former farm family from Bruce County first “put to sea”! Helen’s ten year legacy of ship’s menu and recipes has been printed in her cookbook, and is available to passengers on board ship. 2 3 OTTAWA RIVER OTTAWA LONG ISLAND RIDEAU RIVER BURRITTS RAPIDS RIDEAU MERRICKVILLE CANAL POONAMALIE BIG CHUTE SMITHS FALLS SEVERN RIVER PORT RIDEAU STANTON GEORGIAN LAKES BAY TRENT-SEVERN WATERWAY WESTPORT KAWARTHA LAKES ORILLIA ROSEDALE BOBCAYGEON BUCKHORN KIRKFIELD ST.
