"Early Ontario Settlers" by Crowder

Cameron, Loyalist, Butlers Rangers, American Revolution, Ontario, Genealogy, Canada, Canadian, Van Volkinburg, Vollick, Putman, Cooke, Cook, Early Settlers of Canada West, Canada West, Supply list, Provisions

A book for Ontario Descendant genealogy research.  If you are doing family history research and don't know where you family went during or right after the Revolution War.  Then you may want to take a look through this book.  It pretty much list out all The Butlers Rangers families & other Loyalist that went to Canada in the late 1783 - 1789.

My Van Valkenburg/Vollicks, Kiltz, Cooke, Hainer, Garter & Warner.

The Index in this book is wonderful.  Saves alot of time since it's done so well.

Who will you find in here?

Find a grave (gravestone, headstone, tombstone) in Canada by clicking on the province, or territory. These records are created by volunteers, like yourself, who submit photographs (photos, pictures, scans) of headstones. A volunteer may submit 1 or 1001 (one or one thousand and one) entries to the database. They may even photograph and submit a complete cemetery (cemetary).
Find a grave within a province or territory, by searching by county, district, rural municipality or region. You can, also, search the database using a surname, partial surname, begins with, contains or even sounds like.
You can also locate a grave by searching a particular cemetery. You may even list all records for a cemetery.
If you see a cemetery name which contains a plus sign ( + ), this indicates there is a photograph of the cemetery gate, entrance or landscape. To locate this photograph or picture, perform a search using cemetery name.
We encourage submitters to include photos of any headstone, gravestone, tombstone, necropolis, monument, war memorial, statue, plaque which show information about a burial or death. We expect the complete transcription, text, epitaph, or whatever is on the monument to be entered for the benefit of researchers, family members and others who have any interest in genealogy, family history or local history.
