City of Kawartha Lakes

Lindsay was originally named Purdy's Mills. In 1834, surveyor John Huston plotted the  town site into streets and lots. During the survey, one of Huston's assistants, Mr. Lindsay, was accidentally shot in the leg and died of an infection. He was buried on the river bank and his name and death were recorded on the surveyor's plan. The name Lindsay remained as the name of the town by government approval.

During 1857, the town saw a period of rapid development and industrial growth due to the railway. In 1861, a fire swept through the town and most of Lindsay was destroyed with hundreds of people left homeless. It took many years for Lindsay to recover from this disaster.

In 2001 Lindsay's town government was merged, with Victoria County into the new City of Kawartha Lakes.
