"In my many travels and contacts within the UELAC organistion across Canada, the Eva Brook Donly Museum and Archives is frequently recognised as being a pre-eminent resource for United Empire Loyalist history and heritage within Southern Ontario." David Hill Morrison, Grand River UEL Association.
The Eva Brook Donly Museum and Archives is recognised as the major repository of primary and secondary source information relating to the United Empire Loyalists who settled in the Long Point Area of Ontario. Our collection also contains a vast number of resources pertaining to New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island as well as what has been described as the largest collection of published Colonial America resources held in a non-academic library. Our microfilm holdings consist of muster rolls for Loyalist regiments, indexed Land Grants, petitions and more.
The Norfolk Historical Society is pleased to be able to co-operate with the Grand River United Empire Loyalist Association and invite you to check out the more than 200 titles in their Loyalist library.
Many of our reading room volunteers are members of this and other Loyalist organisations and will be able to assist you with your research.
Please call ahead if you wish to confirm that a UEL volunteer will be on duty or can be scheduled when you arrive. visit.
