C. Flick, _Loyalism in New York_ (1901); it is the result
of exhaustive researches, and contains an excellent bibliography of printed and manuscript sources. Other studies in a limited field are James H. Stark, _The Loyalists of Massachusetts and the Other Side of the American Revolution_ (1910), and G. A. Gilbert, _The Connecticut Loyalists_ (American Historical Review, IV, 273). For the settlements of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, the most important source is _The Winslow Papers_ (edited by W. O. Raymond, 1901), an admirably annotated collection of private letters written by and to Colonel Edward Winslow. Some of the official correspondence relating to the migration is calendared in the Historical Manuscript Commission's _Report on American Manuscripts in the Royal Institution of Great Britain_ (1909), Much material will be found in the provincial histories of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, such as Beamish Murdoch, _A History of Nova Scotia or Acadie_ (3 vols., 1867), and James Hannay, _History of New Brunswick_ (2 vols., 1909), and also in the local and county histories. The story of the Loyalists of Prince Edward Island is contained in W. H. Siebert and Florence E. Gilliam, _The Loyalists in Prince Edward Island_ (Proceedings and Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada, 3rd series, IV, ii, 109). An account of the Shelburne colony will be found in T. Watson Smith, _The Loyalists at Shelburne_ (Collections of the Nova Scotia Historical Society, VI, 53). |
