Hi all as most of you know I am of a different "political" ancestral (ROFLMAF) persuasion so I have little interest in Continental or State veterans of the war of 1775-1783 (at this time) but I am very interested in communicating with those of you who might have veterans whose beliefs led them to be of the Loyalist label for any reason, not just the moral dilema that their descendents faced in the "other" War of Secession, 1861-1865 -- blood against blood, friend against friend. Even if you have no proof but because they uprooted and moved to Canada suddenly and without any aparrent reason, I want to communicate with you. For the other War preceeding the "Revolution", the last of the French and Indian Wars, I am compiling data on individuals and engagements, mostly for the engagements in the Champlain Valley, NY and mostly New England colonials. I am interested in corresponding with anyone who has data on ANY individuals not just PERKINS or RUGGLES. Have a great weekend, really nice here in Raleih, NC, only in the upper 40's but crystal clear Carolina Blue sky. Feels like Spring is trying to come on. Bill
