IMPORTANT NOTICE!
As I have announced at the Rose House Museum Celebrations
on 21. August 2004 at the Bay of Quinte, my complete research
material collected over the last 20 years in respect to
Hessian soldiers who have settled in Canada after the American
Revolution
has been turned over to the 7th Town Historical Society,
President Ian E. Reilly, U.E., located at the
Marilyn Adams Genealogical Research Centre,
528 County Road 19, Box 35,
Ameliasburg, Ontario, Canada, K0K 1A0
Phone 1-613-967-6291
Their website is http://www.quinte-kin.com
This material will shorthly be available for your family research.
The 7th Town Historical Society has also taken over my remaining
stock of books and will be available from them in future.
These are:
The Hessians of Nova Scotia,
The Hessians of Upper Canada,
The Hessians of Quebec,
The Hessians of Marysburg, Ontario,
while the "GUIDE to help you find your Hessian Soldier of the
American Revolution" (this issue concerning those soldiers who
remained primarly in the U.S.A., is still available from me.
Just remember, appr. 2500 Hessian soldiers from different
principalities remained in Canada after 1783, and one or more
of them may be in 'YOUR" family tree.
This concludes my research for this 'special' group' of settlers,
in 3 weeks my American material goes to the
'Sons of the American Revolution', and I'll retire.
Auf Wiedersehen, and best of luck to all of you.
Cheers,
John Helmut Merz,
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
