To this impressive list he now adds the writings of Lieutenant Friedrich Julius Von Papet, a young Brunswick officer whose journal spans the period from May of 1776 to October of 1783. \"One of the most significant and important effects of the English employment of Hessians during the American Revolutionary War was the retention of English control of Canada. General John Burgoyne had taken most of the [British] military strength from Canada for his command when he marched against the American colonists in 1777. However, even after France entered the war [on the American side], the residents of that former French colony were not strong enough to openly resist the military control exercised by a small English and Hessian command. As a result, England retained Canada under the terms of the Treaty of Paris in 1783.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTroops from Hesse-Cassel, Waldeck and Ansbach-Bayreuth were sent to Howe's command, as well as some troops from Hesse-Hanau and Anhalt-Zerbst, while troops from Hesse-Hanau, Brunswick and Anhalt-Zerbst provided the forces sent to Canada, together with some troops from Hesse-Cassel which were sent from New York to Canada later in the war. The Brunswick troops, numbering 4,300 men, sailed for America in two divisions, one departing in late March 1776, and the other, including Von Papet, departing on 31 May 1776, two weeks after the start of this journal. Von Papet was one of the Hessians (only 600+ officers and non-commissioned officers) who remained behind in Canada when John Burgoyne began his march against the American colonists in 1777. Though only twenty-one years old, Von Papet was assigned the important position of brigade major. Because he kept a diary throughout his English service (all the way up to his return march to Brunswick), we have a picture of the military, social and cultural life in Canada at that time. As a very young man in a very demanding position, Von Papet records the inner reactions among his superiors with a noteworthy caution and understanding not to let his position cause him harm. As there is a scarcity of information concerning military affairs in Canada during the American Revolution, Von Papet's journal provides much-needed insight into why Canada never became a very large fourteenth American colony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBruce E.

This is the story of a group of approximately 150 young Canadian speculators who were the first to cross from Canada to British Columbia overland, thus they earned the name 'Overlanders.' They ventured from Montreal to British Columbia through the Hudson's Bay Territory in the hopes of striking gold. The story of this first pass through the vast and hostile terrain, as seen through the eyes of a 19 year-old boy from Montreal, begins with his travels to Fort Garry (now the city of Winnipeg). It describes the dangerous journey across the prairies, the turbulent rapids of the Fraser River, the Rocky Mountains and the Thompson River Expedition. Complete with portraits of several 'Overlanders,' biographical sketches, old photographs, illustrations, a map of the town of Kamloops in 1896, extracts from Sawney's Letters and Cariboo Rhymes, and a new fullname index.

The Brunswick troops, numbering 4,300 men, sailed for America in two divisions, one departing in late March 1776, and the other, including Von Papet, departing 31 May 1776, two weeks after the start of the journal. Von Papet was one of the Hessians ( only 600+ officers and noncommissioned officers) who remained behind in Canada when John Burgoyne began his march against the American colonists in 1777. Though only 21 years old, Von Papet was assigned the important position of brigade major. Because he kept a diary throughout his English service (all the way up to his return march to Brunswick), we have a picture of the military, social and cultural life in Canada at that time. As a very young man in a very demanding position, Von Papet records the inner reactions among his superiors with a noteworthy caution and understanding not to let his position cause him harm. As there is a scarcity of information concerning military affairs in Canada during the American Revolution, Von Papet's journal provides much-needed insight into why Canada never became a very large fourteenth American colony.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBruce E.

This English surgeon founded a medical mission in 1892 that strove for more than 80 years to serve the impoverished people of Labrador and northern Newfoundland. His mission brought medical care, schools, and orphanages to coastal villages beset by untreated disease and injuries, malnutrition, and poverty. This book is about the mission and its volunteers-some famous in their later years, most of them not-what they did, what effect they had on people's lives and how the experience affected them. They were in fact a sort of Peace Corps.

Recruited in France by the Ministry of the Marine, these men were organized into independent companies-Les Compagnies Franches de la Marine-and assigned to posts throughout the French colonial empire. The marine in Canada was the only regular soldier in the colony from 1685 to 1755. His assignment to Canada was for life. After his term of service, he was expected to become a colonist. Unlike other European soldiers, the marine became part of the country in which he served. In many cases, he became as Canadian as those native born. Topics include: history, material culture, a marine's life, marine music, cannoneers-bombardiers, watercraft, and French fortifications in Canada, along with several appendices that cover such items as: the organization of a marine company in Canada, marine pay, a list of marine officers, caliber of French artillery and small arms, and Native Americans allied with the French. This book examines a military force that has been condemned or virtually ignored by historians, suggesting instead that these soldiers were an effective military force and important to the development of North America.

He braved treason and lived with a price on his head, all for his beliefs in \"this glorious cause.\" After the war, the reality of forming a new nation brought hardships we cannot fully comprehend today.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIncluded in this book, is a deposition clearly identifying a surprisingly well-known individual as a British spy, new information on Washington's famous crossing of the Delaware, the 1798 shipwreck of the Bangor-built schooner (\u003cem\u003eSusannah\u003c\/em\u003e) with a passenger list including the children of important Revolutionary War heroes, and a brief Noble genealogy. Seth Noble named Bangor for a popular Revolutionary War hymn tune; early sheet music and musical history of this tune is studied in depth. Seth Noble was also the first minister to Columbus, Ohio and researchers will appreciate the inclusion of Ohio land grants, maps, documents, and early history.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOur early history is not dead nor is it completely in the past.

Hundreds of fishing vessels from every port and harbour in Britain were pressed into minesweeping duties, sowing minefields to restrict and destroy German vessels. Their efforts allowed the powerful Royal Navy to hold the German Navy in port — except for occasional skirmishes, including the Battle of Jutland. American destroyers hunted U-boats in British waters, while minelayers created a barrier between the Orkney Islands and Norway, to deny the enemy entry into the Atlantic. Desperate, Germany mounted a U-boat offensive off North America in the summer 1918, to induce the United States to bring her destroyers home. Although nearly one hundred vessels are sunk, this action failed. Germany surrendered in late autumn 1918 and allied vessels were left with the deadly task of removing thousands of mines laid in the war.

In fact, the variety of source records consulted is one of the volume's strengths. From shipping records to passenger lists, from land petitions to census records, then from newspaper columns, vital records, church registers, and a host of fugitive sources, the sources utilized provide a rich trove of genealogical data.

If a passenger list has been published for any of these voyages, it is indicated in the footnotes, but otherwise the ports of departure and arrival and the dates of the voyage provide significant clues to an immigrant's place of origin in Scotland and place of settlement in Canada.

The Lowlander, more accustomed to towns and trade, gravitated to cities such as Halifax and Saint John, and the towns of Pictou, St. Andrews and Dalhousie.

By comparison, significant numbers of Irish people could already be found in the English colonies in the West Indies, and to a limited degree in the Dutch West Indies. By the early 18th century, however, the Irish were the largest immigrant group to settle in the thirteen American colonies. During this period, most immigrants to America were Presbyterians from the north of Ireland, though this would change dramatically in the 19th century. The greatest Irish exodus to America occurred between the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 and the conclusion of the potato famine in 1851. During that span around one million left Ireland, mainly for North America, but also in smaller numbers for Australia, as well as for the industrializing towns of Britain. Most of those bound for North America sailed from Irish ports, though others went via Liverpool or Glasgow.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume is based on primary sources located in Ireland, the United States, Canada, Scotland, England, and the West Indies. Such primary sources include manuscripts, newspapers and journals, monumental inscriptions, and government records. The author has arranged the list of roughly 1,000 new persons in this volume alphabetically by the emigrant's surname and, in the majority of cases, provides most of the following particulars: date of birth, name of ship, occupation in Ireland, reason for emigration, sometimes place of origin in Ireland, place of disembarkation in the New World, date of arrival, number of persons in the household, and the source of the information.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Dobson\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2020, paper, 114 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780806359151\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e102-8718\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GPC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32238874787958,"sku":"102-8718","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/102-8718.png?v=1727805853"},{"product_id":"102-9788","title":"Genealogist's Handbook for Upper Saint John Valley Research","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis impeccably prepared guidebook teaches us how to find ancestors on both the Maine and New Brunswick sides of the Upper Saint John River Valley.

The region ultimately became home to the indigenous Maliseets, Acadians, French-Canadians, Irish, a few Scots, and a few (mostly English) Loyalists.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author begins with a fascinating historical overview commencing with the aftermath of the American Revolution.

The extant records of the valley (found in both local and distant archives) extend from 1792 to the 20th century, and Mr. Findlen devotes the bulk of his narrative to an inventory of them. The researcher will find separate chapters devoted to each of the following record categories: church registers (probably the most valuable of all records), vital records, marriages, cemetery records, censuses, land records, will and probate documents, newspapers, as well as the various record repositories themselves.
