MSS-042-The Upper Saint John River Valley Land Grants

Maple Stars and Stripes fleur-de-lis logoIs it possible to go to bed a Canadian and wake up an American? Sure is! It happened to our ancestors thanks to the Webster-Ashburton Treaty.

Guest George Findlen shares the story of this uncertain period of time and the depositions created by our ancestors to prove the land they had farmed for years was rightfully theirs. If you’re lucky, you can find information on three or more generations of the family, immigration dates, and farm descriptions.
