OK, last try. No idea why the URL copied previously from the site will not connect. For Annapolis 1784 Muster list: http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/genealogy/022-909.003-e.html Go down to "Ward Chipman Muster Master's Office..." That takes you to a search page. Note the 'British Headquarters Papers' are the same as 'Carleton Papers' held at UNB. Carol The Harriett Irving Llibrary/UNB Loyalist services are found at: http://www.lib.unb.ca/collections/loyalist/about.html A direct email address is cjack@unb.ca For anyone who may not be aware, Sir Guy Carleton was "Commander-in-Chief of all His Majesty's Forces in North America" in 1783, and it seems all requests/petitions for relief of distress had to be approved by him or a designate. If James Everett's family (there were 10) was in dire circumstances and he made a petition for immediate relief, etc. a document might have survived. It may give details of their situation. Worth an enquiry.
