Our
Mission
- To
identify and unite those descendants of
Loyalists living in Manitoba
- To
offer assistance with the research of Loyalist
Ancestry
- To
present educational programs relating to
the Loyalist legacy
-
To inform current generations of the significant
contributions made by the Loyalists and
their descendants to the formation and growth
of Canada
| "Those
Loyalists who have adhered to the Unity
of the Empire, and joined the Royal Standard
before the Treaty of Separation in the
year 1783, and all their Children and
their Descendants by either sex, are to
be distinguished by the following Capitals,
affixed to their
names: UE.
Alluding to their great principle The
Unity of the Empire."
|
Proclaimed
by Lord Dorchester in 1789 for loyalty to
the crown, the UE is Canada's only
hereditary title and descends through both
male and female lines. The
United Empire Loyalists' Association of Canada
was formed in 1914 by Loyalist descendants
and the Manitoba Branch was chartered in 1933.
