Nova  Scotia had little Loyalist settlement.  The Loyalists mistrusted Nova 
 Scotia, which had strong alliances with Massachusetts, and the Nova 
Scotians  regarded the Loyalists as a bunch of whining wimps.  There was some  
Loyalist settlement in Shelburne, but mostly they fetched up in New Brunswick  
and Upper Canada (now Ontario), where they received land grants.   
Gananoque, where I live, was founded by  Loyalists.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
 
I've always wondered why the Maritimes were not included with the 13 states 
in the American Revolution.  Were they just too Tory, or what?
 
There are ten Strang families on PEI and many more in New Brunswick and 
Nova Scotia, and they are all relatives.  I understand that the  Ontario 
Niagara 
Peninsula, in particular, was heavily settled by Loyalists.
