More About This Book:
In the years following the close of the American Revolutionary War, there was a special provision that made
the children of the Loyalists who settled in Ontario eligible for land grants free of fees as they came of age or
married. The compiler of this work extracted from the Canadian Orders-in-Council thousands of references to
the land grants made to these sons and daughters and arranged them systematically under the names of their
Loyalist parents. The references in the Orders-in-Council generally provide, in the case of sons, the name of
the petitioner, his place of residence, and the name of his father--the Loyalist through whom he claimed the
land grant. In the case of daughters, the reference states the name of her husband, her place of residence, and
the name of her father. Mr. Reid has also supplied, from additional sources, marriage dates, birth and death
dates, and the names of wives of the sons of the Loyalists.

Here is a list of some items dealing with a few area families [Fraser, Pringle, Cattanach] that we recently came across at the University of Victoria, Victoria, BC that might be interest to viewers.
