YI. ADDITIONS AND COEEECTIONS TO THE MONOGRAPH 

 OX OEIGIXS OF SETTLEMENTS. 



37. The statement that an Acadian settlement occurred above 

 Doaktown proves to be an error; ses earlier under Historic Sites 

 in these addenda. 



4:6. An important epoch in the settlement of the Acadians in New- 

 Brunswick after 1763 was marked by an order passed July 11, 1764, by 

 the King in Council, approving the recommendation of the Lords of 

 Trade that should the Acadians take the oath of allegiance they should 

 be allowed to settle in Nova Scotia, but that they should be dispersed 

 in small numbers in various localities (Coll. N.B. Hist. Soc. II, 313). 

 From this order dates the legal repatriation of the Acadians. 



76. A full account of the formation of the " Fredericton Emigrant 

 Society,^' an organization of considerable importance in this period of 

 New Brunswick colonization is given in the Eoya^ Gazette, August to 

 December, 1819 (especially Aug 10 and 17 and Nov. 30 and Dec. 7.) 

 Also a " St. Andrews Agricultural and 'Emigrants Society " was formed 

 about the same time, and an account of its founding is in the same 

 paper for Jan. 18, 1830. 



83. Among disbanded regiments settled in New Brunswick appear 

 to have been many Waterloo veterans, at Irish Settlement and elsewhere 

 in Kings and Queens County. I have no further information as to the 

 time or manner of their arrival, and it is possible they came and were 

 granted land as individuals, and not in a body. A number of British 

 man-of-warsmen settled at Miscou, Caraquet and Pokemouche. 



To the literature relating to the New Brunswick and Nova Scotia 

 Land Company should be added, the reference in Munro's " New Bruns- 

 wick," 167, and a well-engraved map, dated 1836, scale 6 miles to the 

 inch, entitled, — " New Brunswick and Nova Scotia Land Company. A 

 Map of the Company's Tract of Land in the Province of New Bruns- 

 wick." This map gives a good deal of information about the Com- 

 pany's property, — of very roseate hue. It is the map which first places 

 a great abundance of lakes on the upper branche? of the Miramichi, a 

 feature which persisted unto later maps. 



87. The settlement of the Provmce by Associations, a plan to soma 

 extent still in vogue, was originated by Governor Colebrooke (1841- 

 1848) and was sometimes known by his name, as noted in various docu- 

 ments of the time.
