The author is a descendant of one of the earliest settling families in the area. This 1700’s settlement was later to become Canada West, then Upper Canada and, today, Ontario. Early settlers arrived from Scotland and from the Palatinate area of Germany and an influx of United Empire Loyalists (UELs), escaping the unbridled consequences of their defeat in the American War of Independence.
