I have been reading your queries with some interest. I just finished a book entitled "The Mark of Honor" by Hazel C. Mathews, 1965, University of Toronto Press. Much of it has to do with Scottish loyalists. There is a special chapter entitled " A Journey to Kortright in 1804" about Scottish loyalists who returned from their Canadian refuge to Delaware County. There is also a list of Loyalists (not complete) who settled around Kortright, New Stamford and the head of the Delaware River and later were forced to resettle in Canada. One was John McKee from Harpersfield. He apparently resettled in Osnabruck Twp in Canada. The sources from which this list was assembled was given in the book.
