SUMMARY:UEL Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Our Resource Centre will be used by the local branch of the United Empire Loyalists. AFHS members are invited to attend. \nStephen Davidson from Nova Scotia will be presenting a talk on “Fascinating Facts from Loyalist History: What your teachers might not have known about Canada’s refugee founders”\n\n“This is a particularly good talk for those who are new to loyalist history.  It features 25 facts that most Canadians don’t know about the Loyalists. Those who have a longer familiarity with loyalist history may enjoy seeing how many of these facts they already know.”\n\nStephen has consistently contributed to a weekly Loyalist newsletter called Loyalist Trails.
