This particular branch of my family tree was settled in Pownal, VT in the very S.W. Corner of Vermont. History I've found says the town was split over this "Civil War" The folks who supported the Empire were driven out of town and their lands were confiscated. They went north to Quebec and resettled around Philipsburg, just over the border.

One branch of this bit of family was Palatine German, the other English by ancestry. So no Scots until they intermarried into one of my Scot lines after the war.

Their units were specifically the Kings Royal Regiment of New York 2nd Battalion and the Kings Loyal Americans/ later the Queens Loyal Rangers. I believe both were formed from American colonists who stayed loyal to the King rather than rebel.

Didn't expect any tartan, unless maybe some higher level of command over them had one. Just double checking.

Thanks for all the feedback.

In a bit of famiy irony....the next generation settled very near the border on what they thought was the Canadian side. Considered themselves Canadians from Quebec. When the border was resurveyed turned out they were actually on the American side of the newly surveyed border.
