Comment by Paul Caverly on July 21, 2011 at 6:28am: Leah – re Edmund Horton

I don’t see an Edmund in the books I have but there are a number of Horton names (36). There are Ederald, Edward, Ernest and Everett first names starting with an E in the names that include descendants.

Comment by Debra Honor on July 15, 2011 at 11:56am: I am searching John Butler ( not Butler's Rangers) from New Brunswick. I want to know which Loyalist regiment he served. The two choices I have are Delancey's or Prince of Wales. John Butler and his family later came to Norfolk County, Ontario.

Comment by Luanne Wilson on November 15, 2010 at 2:18pm: Well hello everyone! I am a descendant of Joseph Merritt though the Merritt/Travis line. :)

Comment by Loretta P. Lisowski on October 31, 2010 at 5:02pm: Lorine, I know Issac Van Valkenburg was a Butler's Ranger and this surname morphed to Vollick but would you have any info on Isaac's parents who may have been Isaac VanValkenburgh and Jannetje Clement who lived on the Susquehanna River in PA and then lived in New York?

Comment by Loretta P. Lisowski on October 31, 2010 at 4:54pm: Leah, I don't see Edmund Horton in the muster rolls of Butler's Rangers but there are other Hortons here: http://www.royalprovincial.com/military/musters/brangers/mrbrmain.htm

It is also essential that you check the book An Annotated Nominal Roll of Butler's Rangers 1777-1784 with Documentary Sources by William A. Smy.

Comment by Randall Stackhouse on August 26, 2010 at 6:25pm: I am looking for information on Loyalst Rufus Green. I see he had land in Kingston, New Brunswick, Canada. I know he had a daughter named Sarah Green who married Joseph Stackhouse. I also know he came from Courtlandt Manor, New york. I would love to find out who his parents were as well as his wife and Childrens names. I found info that when he went to NS and NB, he had a wife and 2 children over 10yrs old, and 2 children under 10yrs old. Any help would be great!

Comment by Leah on September 4, 2009 at 11:21pm: Does anyone know anything about Edmund Horton who served in Butler's Rangers and after the war went to the Niagara or Lincoln area of Ontario? I believe I'm connected to him through his son, Emanuel, but there isn't much info on Edmund out there. Any help is appreciated.
