New Annapolis, Nova Scotia Loyalist Books

The Annapolis Heritage Society Genealogy Centre is launching five new Loyalist family genealogy books on August 9 at the Granville Ferry Hall. These books, part of the society’s new Loyalists to Annapolis County series, are the work of four volunteers (Ina Oliver, Denise Rice, Ruth Ritchie, and Frank Taylor) at the O’Dell House Museum. The researchers have traced the lines of the Durling, Gesner, John Ritchie, Merritt, and Williams families who arrived in Annapolis County at the end of the American Revolution.

You can read more about this new resource in an article by Larry Powell in the Annapolis County Spectator at http://www.novanewsnow.com/article-237923-Loyalists-coming-to-Annapolis-County.html.

I just found this website while doing some net surfing looking for info about my ancestors who had immigrated to Nova Scotia from Mass at the end of the French & Indian Wars.
I would like to find out more about them and if they were involved in the American Revolution as Loyalist militia, or what.

Thanks, Thomas Tucker
