Webinar — Researching a Loyalist soldier

Legacy Family Tree will host the free webinar, Researching a Loyalist Soldier, presented by Craig R. Scott, on Wednesday, July 29, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time.

Approximately one-third of the people living in the colonies at the time of the American Revolutionary War were loyal to the king. During the war some fought in Loyalist units. By the end of the war, most were forced to leave, either north to Canada or back across the ocean. Many filed claims with the British government for failing to protect them from the rebels. Learn about the records of their service and records of their times after the war.

Register to watch the live webinar. There is a syllabus for Legacy Family Tree webinar subscribers. One of the publications listed in the bibliography is Brenda Dougall Merriman’s book, United Empire Loyalists: A Guide to Tracing Loyalist Ancestors in Upper Canada, Global Heritage Press, 2009.

A recording of the webinar will be available to watch for free for up to seven days afterward in the webinar library.
