A collection of postcards and photographs by The History Hunters New Horizon Committee of the Bruce County Historical Society.Bruce County, its elongated peninsula reaching towards Manitoulin Island, is situated in the northwest corner of Southern Ontario. Lake Huron forms the western boundary, Georgian Bay the northeastern limit. Grey County is to the east and Huron County to the south. Bruce has sixteen townships, all of which are truly rural as the county as no cities.The pioneers who arrived in the mid 1800's used its many waterways extensively. Luke Huron and Georgian Bay were natural highways into which emptied the Saugeen; its large tributary, the Teeswater; the Pine; the Penetangore and the Sauble.Later came the railways and roads; many hamlets sprang up. Busy and prosperous they consisted of mills, stores, post offices, churches, schools and factories. Later, when motorized road vehicles became the mode of travel and transport, many of these communities faded into oblivion, remaining only in keepsakes and memories.
