United Empire Loyalists: Enquiry Into the Losses and Services in Consequence of Their Loyalty
Evidence in Canadian Claims. Second Report of the Bureau of Archives for the Province in Ontario
This vast work contains the record of claims for losses for more than 1,200 people who fled to Canada during and immediately after the American Revolutionary War. It contains the extensive notes of the commissioners who heard the claims from 1783 - 1790. These notes contain much genealogical information and also sum up the position of the claimants. Each document usually gives the claimant’s name, country of origin, reason for emigration, date of migration, place of residence in the American colonies, occupation, names of family members and friends, location and value of confiscated property, war service rendered, losses sustained, evidence of character, statements of witnesses, notes of deed and wills and highlights of the claimant’s experiences during the war.
