We are very pleased to announce the GRAND OPENING of the first website dealing specifically with the Loyalists of the American Revolution to combine genealogy, military history and living history. The On-Line Institute for Advanced Loyalist Studies (Royalprovincial.com) is the collaborative effort of Todd Braisted of New Jersey and Nan Cole of Illinois. Todd is an independent researcher with an extensive background in Loyalist military studies. Nan is a genealogist and researcher and hosts both a Loyalist and a Canadian genealogy chat group. This project was started in April of 1999 with the goal of providing detailed, accurate Loyalist information to anyone who might have an interest. The site is not intended to serve as an introduction to what a Loyalist is, but rather is a place for those who are seeking detailed, specific information about individual Loyalist regiments or soldiers. The site is broken down into several major areas: History, Military, Genealogy, Reenacting and Miscellaneous. Among the original information to be found is a complete listing of all known Loyalist units that existed between 1775 and 1784, and a chronological list of battles and engagements during the war, along with the Loyalist units that took part in each. There are hundreds of transcribed documents, including courts martials, muster rolls, orderly books, regimental correspondence, deserter descriptions, battle reports, newspaper accounts, songs, poems, memorials, land grant petitions, intelligence reports, clothing returns, church records, Black Loyalist materials, proclamations, recruiting notices, Rebel accounts of Loyalists, distributions, and women’s documents. Our on-line research address book provides addresses, hours of operation, phone numbers and website links to the major research centers for Loyalist manuscript materials and genealogies and will be expanded in the future to include additional repositories, churches, organizations and societies of interest to Loyalist researchers. In the Reenacting section you will be able to learn about Living History and the groups that portray the Loyalists today, see photos of the groups and of past events, and find out how to get in touch with the group of your choice. Plus much, much more… While the site currently contains over 1,000 pages of information, it is by no means complete. The amount of information planned for the future is more than double the amount currently on-line. So, if you do not find information on the individual or group you are looking for now, please stop back soon, as we will be updating things on an ongoing basis. You can also sign up to receive a free monthly notification of the new materials that have been added. To celebrate our grand opening, we will be conducting a special “Loyalist contest” on Monday, February 7th, our first day live. It costs nothing to enter and will give you a chance to test your knowledge (or just get lucky and guess right!) to win a small prize. Please stop by for details and enter! And while you are there, take a minute to sign our Guestbook or post a message or query on our Genealogy or History Message Boards. We look forward to greeting our visitors and assisting them with their Loyalist questions. Please follow this link/address to enter our site. Thanks!
