PREFACE .
In presenting this work to the public, the compilers wish to state that their object, which they hope they have attained is to provide a work which will prove not only useful, but interesting, and that every exertion in their power has been made to render it complete and reliable.
From the variety of sources from which it was necessary to obtain the required information, and the impossibility o f avoiding all mistakes in a work of this nature, inaccuracies may be found, especially in the orthography of proper names, but the publishers trust that as few errors will be discovered in this work as in any of a similar character, and that it will deserve the approbation of its patrons.
We return our sincere thanks to those who have so liberally aided the undertaking, not only in a pecuniary sense, but also by providing us with valuable information. We are particularly in- dnbted to the kindness and courtesy of the several papers of the County.

In the year 1834, the County of* Halton comprised the territory now known as North W entworth, Waterloo and Wellington ; and in 1837, by Act of Parliament, the Wellington District was set apart, comprising the townships of' Luther, Proton, Amaranth and Melancthon f'rom the County of Simcoe ; the townships of Guelph, Garafraxa, Erin, Eramosa, Nichol, Waterloo, Wilmot, Woolwich, Wellesley and Mornington, from the Gore District. At a subsequent period the United Counties of’ Waterloo and Brant were formed. These were separated in 1863.

The County contains almost every variety of soil and surface— clay, loam, sand and gravel, hill, valley, meadow land and swamp, The land is fertile, and well cultivated and improved. It is well watered by the Grand, Speed, and Conestogo rivers, together with a number of smaller streams, tributaries of the rivers. The timber is principally hardwood.

NORTH DUMFRIES.This township is bounded north by Waterloo ; east by Beverly, county
Wentworth ; west by Blenheim, county Oxford ; and south by South Dumfries, county Brant.
The township of Dumfries (north and south) was first settled by W. Dickson in the year 1816. In 1817 tbe settlers numbered thirty- eight. making with their families a population of one hundred and sixty- three of all ages. There were in that year 245 acres cleared, and the business of the township, apart from agriculture, consisted of one sawmill and one store.
Among the early settlers were John and George Telfor, J. D. Campbell, Michael Knox, and Thos. Chisholm.
North Dumfries is well watered by the Grand and Nith Rivers and Cedar Creek. The soil is generally a light sandy loam, the surface rolling, and well adapted for wheat and other cereals. Great attention is paid to stock raising, and a number of Durham cattle and Leicester sheep have been imported.
The timber is a mixture of pine, oak, beech, maple, elm, cherry, basswood and cedar. Limestone of a superior quality is abundant.
There are at present in the township five flouring mills, two woollen mills and several sawmills.

WATERLOO.This Township is bounded north by Woolwich ; east by Guelph and
Puslinch, county Wellington ; west by Wilmot, and south by North Dumfries. It was originally block number two on tbe Grand River, and comprised 94,012 acres. In May, 1798, it was owned by Richard Beasley, Jean Baptiste Rosseau. and James Wilson. In December, 1803, Richard Beasley became the sole proprietor of block No. 2, having'obtained, at that date, a quit claim deed from Joseph Brant, (Tyendenaga), chief warrior of the Five Nation Indians, of a part of the block comprising 13,430 acres. On the 28th of June, 1802, Beasley conveyed 60.000 acres to Daniel and Jacob Erb. This purchase was afterwards known as the ‘‘ German Company Tract.” Waterloo is one of the most thickly settled townships in the Province. The majority of the inhabitants are of Pennsylvanian Dutch or German extraction. Many of the early settlers brought considerable capital with them, and consequently, in connection with their temperate and industrious habits, their prosperity continually increased, and their farms and residences will compare favorably with those of any township in the country.
The land is principally a sandy and vegetable loam mixed with gravel. The Grand River runs through the centre of the township, and in the south of it is joined by the Speed. Numerous other branches of the Grand River are spread over the township. In 1825 the population was 1,640 ; in 1841, 4,424 ; in 1850, 7,759, and in 1864, 13,952.

He returned in the year 1826 with a large number of settlers. These grants comprised the first quarter of each lot to actual settlers on the north'and south of “ Erb’s road,” north and south of “ Snyder’s road,” and north and south of Bleanis’ road.” Block “ A ,” comprising the first, second and third concessions, and block “ B ” the first, second, third and fourth concessions, was purchased from the crown by the Canada Company in 1829.

WOOLWICH.Woolwich is bounded north byPeel, county Wellington; east by
Maryborough, county Wellington ; west by Wellesley, and south by Waterloo.
The land is of the best quality and the timber is principally hardwood. It is well watered by the Grand river on tlie east and the Conestoga on the west. The surface is generally hilly, and the soil a stiff loam inter- mixed with clay.
In the year 1807 a portion of this township, 45,195 acres, was granted by the Crown to one William Wallace, who disposed of the entire block to John and Jacob Erb and Augustus Jones, trustees for the German Company, the members of which first settled this section. In conveying this tract to the Company Wallace omitted to supply the bar to his wife’s dower, and fifty-two years after, efforts were made, under the dower, to exact a consideration or a division of the property. This measure necessarily caused a great deal of excitement at the time, but by the exertions

of the Hon. M. H. Foley, at tbe time representative of the North Riding of Waterloo, who procured the passage of a bill by tbe Legislature quieting all titles, the claims of the Wallace family were negatived.

GALT.A Town in the County of Waterloo, is situated in the Township of
North Dumfries, and on both sides of the Grand River. The surrounding country is remarkable for its fertility, and the scenery in the neighborhood of the town is very picturesque. It is the largest and most populous town in the county, and in regard of its manufactures is second to none in the Province. The numerous extensive establishments are fully employed, and Galt has not inappropriately been called the ‘ ‘ Manchester of Canada.” Its water power is unlimited, and a reference to the subjoined list of the principal establishments, will give a good idea of its claims to be the “ wealthiest incorporated town in Canada.” The streets are neatly laid out, and the employment of stone in building, wbicb is procured in any required quantity in the immediate vicinity, gives the town a remarkably substantial appeai'ance. In 1845 the population was estimated at 1,000; in 1852, it was 2,248 ; and in 1861, 3,069. The present population is probably about 3,500. ^
D u m f r ie s F o u n d r y — Goldie, McCulloch & Co.— This establishment lias been in operation for about 25 years. The motive power is steam, two engines— aggregate, 40 horse, employing upwards of one hundred operatives. There are two departments, one for the manufacture of engines, boilers, and general mill gearing, the other for woollen machinery. All the manufactures are of the most approved model, and the best proof of tbe excellency of the manufacture is found in the demand not only from all parts of Canada, but from the West Indies, California, and other distant countries.
V ic t o r ia F o u n d r y —Lutz & Co.— Established about twenty-five years water power, equivalent to 15 horse— employs from 25 to 30 hands. Manufactures all kinds of agricultural implements, shingle-sawing machines, stoves, ploughs, &c.

The remedial means and processes used in this practice, though innocent to the patient, are among the most efficient that have ever been discovered or devised for the cure of disease. The poisons of the medical world, blood-letting, blistering and all the tormenting and injurious treatment of some schools of practice are entirely discarded.
In the treatment of all forms of disease of the Lungs, Stomach, Liver, &c., &c., this system of practice has been remarkably successful.
Dr. S. pays special attention to the treatment of all forms of disease peculiar to women and children. No charges for consultation.
