Hi -- I'm new to the list and have two queries. First, as to my family, Nicholas Cramer and his wife barbara (last name unknown) were my 3x g-grandparents. They apparently came to Ontario in the late 1700's with seven children, one of whom, mary Anne (Polly) married Nehemiah Wheeler. They settled first in the Ancaster area in Wentworth County and then in Halton County. I have a fair bit of information on antecedents including a copy of a page of the record of the debts to Queen Anne of some of the Palatines who settled in New York in 1710, including Ana Maria Kramerin, from whom Nicholas came. I am interested in all information on the Cramers. My second query is historical. Clearly a large number of people, many of them of German origin, came from the Sussex County area to Canada in the post-war period. Common names include Zimmerman, Van Sickle, beam, etc. Is there an explanation for this phenomonon (other than the obvious, that they were 'loyalists') and is there a worthwhile history of Sussex County?
