Nova Scotia and Ontario were among the first places where American colonists, including Loyalists, as well as English, Scottish, and Irish immigrants, settled.
The limited availability of civil records from Nova Scotia and Ontario amplifies the significance of the records contained in these books. Notably, there is a vast assortment of newspaper columns that focus on New England families of English ancestry who relocated to Nova Scotia during the American Revolutionary War.
