I wrote there to find out about my great great great grandfather who served in the Fenian Raids and got back more information than I dreamed of getting. You could also write to the Ontario Archives in Toronto. The National Archives has the actual military records, and Ontario Archives has a record of the land grants the men received for their service during the Fenian Raid. I believe you can assess both these archives on the net, but I don't know the URLs for them. Maybe someone else could give them to us. Good luck, Maxine
