Produktbeschreibung
They heard the news-the war was over. Some rejoiced, some mourned, and others quietly packed what they could carry and turned toward an uncertain future in the north. Loyalist Echoes of 1783 is a powerful genealogical anthology rooted in the moment peace was declared at the end of the American Revolution. From forgotten graves in Kingston to vanished farms in New York, this book resurrects the men and women who experienced the end of the war firsthand-Loyalists, neutrals, and quietly entangled families torn across battle lines. Each entry begins with a vivid historical vignette-bringing these real individuals to life in the moment they might have received the news of peace. What did they feel? Who did they lose? Where did they go next? Then comes the creative handoff: a section for writers and genealogists that reimagines each person's life as a spark for fiction. You'll find brief family trees, context for research, and narrative guidance to continue telling their story. This book is for anyone who hears echoes when reading old names in faded ledgers. It's a love letter to Canadian roots, Loyalist resilience, and the stories waiting to be told.
Autorenporträt
Angeline Gallant traces her roots through generations of Old Stock Canadian heritage, her passion for genealogy as deep and enduring as the forests and fields her ancestors once walked. With a reverence for history and an eye for detail, she weaves stories from the fragments of lives left behind in letters, records, and weathered headstones. An avid reader and devoted writer, Angeline brings the past to life with a curiosity for heraldry and a deep love for the landscapes that shaped her family's story. Each name and date she uncovers feels less like history and more like coming home, a familiar echo in the vast tapestry of time. For her, these stories are not forgotten-they live, breathing in the quiet spaces of memory and tradition, a testament to lives once lived, now eternal in the pages of her books.
