We are true blue. Some left, some stayed in the onion. They was all good god fearing folks. The last arrived in Toronto in 1865 after they could not bear the civilian war being lost. They brought a Virginia slave with them, who became free in TO. He ran the livery stable for them, and made 30 dollar a week. They were not few in number, it is true. There were about 70,000 estimated who fled after the WOI. And then a few continued to trickle north up to and after the snivel war. (see trickle-up theory) Perhaps another 70,000, maybe more. These latecomers mostly moved to Ontario. York and parts east were settled by that band over about a 100 year period. By 1812, 80,000 of the people of Upper Canada could claim to have been born in the 13 colonies. In addition to perhaps one person in ten in Canada who has a Loyalist ancestor, many who live elsewhere in the USA, in commonwealth countries like Australia and New Zealand and in any other country round the world are also of Loyalist descent.
