Transcriber's note:
Minor typographical errors and inconsistencies have been silently normalized. Archaic and variable spellings, and inconsistent hyphenation have been retained. Example: both "Curwin" and "Curwen" appear.
Page vii: The Appendix contents list shows "LIST OF LOYALISTS WHOSE NAMES OR BIOGRAPHIES ARE NOT FOUND IN THIS WORK" as on page 484, whereas it is actually on page 503.
Page 69: The footnote anchor is missing. The transcriber has placed it where it seems likely to have been required.
Page 103: (*) denotes missing footnote.
Page 111: There are two footnote markers but no foot note (*).
Page 126: "Whereare we the subscribers did ..." Replaced "whereare" with "whereas".
Page 151: A currency "dispute took place in 1762 as regarde the parity between gold and silver." "regarde" changed to "regards".
Page 157: 'the objects of the contempt even of woman, and children.' "woman" changed to "women".
