Lindsay Ontario
Lindsay is a neighborhood of 20,700 individuals on the Scugog River in the Kawartha Lakes area of south-eastern Ontario, Canada. It is around 43 km west of Peterborough. It is the seat of the City of Kawartha Lakes (formerly Victoria County), and the hub for service and commerce in the region.
Lindsay Transit provides bus service to the community and surrounding location.
The Township of Ops was surveyed in 1825 by Colonel Duncan McDonell, and Lots 20 and 21 in the 5th Concession were scheduled for a townsite. The very same year inhabitants began to come to the region, and by 1827, the Purdys, an American family, developed a dam on the Scugog River at the site of present-day Lindsay. The following year they constructed a sawmill, and in 1830, a grist mill was built.
A little village matured around the mills, and it was known as Purdy’s Mills. In 1834, surveyor John Huston outlined the designated townsite into lots and streets. During the survey, one of Huston’s assistants, Mr. Lindsay, was mistakenly shot in the leg and died of an infection. He was buried on the riverbank, and his name and death were tape-recorded on the surveyor’s plan. The name Lindsay remained as the name of the town by government approval. Lindsay grew steadily and established into a farming and lumbering.
On June 19 of the very same year, Lindsay was formally included as a town. In 1861, a fire swept through the town, and most of Lindsay was ruined, with hundreds of individuals left homeless. It took lots of years for Lindsay to recuperate from this disaster.
In 2001 Lindsay’s town federal government was officially dissolved and combined, with Victoria County into the new City of Kawartha Lakes.
