Hello Upper Canada You have not heard from me for ages, but sometimes something you did in the past, catches up with you unexpectedly. In 1999 I posted to this list a little article a found in a book called "Places in Ontario" by Nick and Helma Mika, and it said: "Carlsruhe, community, Carrick Township, Bruce County, settled originally by German people, the small community situated 7 miles southeast of the county seat of Walkerton, was named after a city in the west of Germany." Today I received a leng

12. [UPP-CAN] Re Burrow, Stewart, and Milne [1]
Hi: Punched in a search on Google - and found several sites that will give information on the above company. Looks like they were an iron foundry and one of the partners Milne was a director of several companies. Didn't read it all - but interesting. Used burrow + stewart + milne to access the information. There is also a site with a picture of a scale - hope this helps. Shirley Heaton, BC
13. Re: [UPP-CAN] Loyalists [1]
One small comment -- William D Reid did not 'find' some index cards -- he created them. Their basis was his extraction of names and dates from thousands of original Orders-in-Council in Record Group 1 at the Archives of Ontario. In addition, he often supplemented family information from other sources in RG 1 and some early church records that were available to him at the time. Tom Wilson of Hunterdon House Publishing was instrumental in making this incredible collection widely accessible in book form, with
14. [UPP-CAN] Samuel ARNOLD [1]
In studying my family back to the earliest days of the town of York and the surrounding area, I have come across two men by the name of Samuel ARNOLD. I wonder if anyone can point me to sources which might help me to figure out which one was which. The first is Samuel ARNOLD who married Dorothy Storring on 1 Jan 1806 at St James. Dorothy Storring was granted lands as the daughter of a loyalist on the 7th concession west of Yonge Street in either Vaughan or York Twp in 1807. These are the only references I

I'd like to tie up loose ends, and here is one somebody may have the answers. I did check the Butler's Rangers Muster Rolls and found a Joseph SIRN listed as Corporal in Capt. Tin Brook's Comp. (don't blame me for this spelling, but that what the webpage of 'The On-Line Institute for Advanced Loyalist Studies' says. In another Muster Roll of Butler's Rangers also found through Google, he was called Joseph SENN Corporal of the Ten Broeck's Company. Problem as I see it, nobody seems to know where Joseph

22. [UPP-CAN] MILLAR birth, 1852-3 [1]
New to this List - have just discovered a birth in 1852-3 for a Margaret MILLER/MILLAR. Her parents were William MILLAR and Jane A. HALCRO who were Orcadians, they married in Orkney in 1850. Quite surprised to find a probable child of this marriage, William died only a few years into the marriage, and there were no children noted as being born in Orkney. The 1861 Census for Orphir, Orkney shows Margaret MILLER as 8 years old born Canada, the 1871 census finds her aged 19, born Canada, but the 1881 Cens

Broadcast times for the BBC-Radio Scotland series, "The Lowland Clearances", are 20:30 UK time on: --May 31, 2003 --June 7, 2003 A portion of the series is based on the experiences of some Lanarkshire Scots who went to Scarborough, Ontario. In January this year, BBC-Radio Scotland interviewed the McCowan family in Canada, tracing the family's movements from Cumnock, Ayrshire, to Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire in 1799 and, finally, to Scarborough, Canada in 1833.
