I had always considered joining UELAC, however ironically I also descend from Revolutionary soldiers (makes for a conflicted family). I appreciate your blog, and the detailed research that you put into it!<br /><br />BrianBrian Andersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3707450617653976970.post-46617139633242190712012-03-04T08:54:52.104-05:002012-03-04T08:54:52.104-05:00Good discussion.

I don't envy anyone whos ancestors didn't leave a paper trail. Thanks for blogging about the UELAC, our association is a valuable and under-recognized resource in preserving and sharing Canada's heritage.<br /><br />Earlline Bradt UE<br />memberEarline Hines Bradthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17099623350212034924noreply@blogger.com
