• Notes

  Came to New Brunswick with his Loyalist father in 1783. Linus petitioned with his father 22 August 1812 requesting grants of 300 acres each. Linus was granted Lot #1, Reddin Brook on 19 October 1816 located on the north shore of the Kennebecasia River in Norton Parish. He was not listed in the census for Kings County and the 1851 census for most of Saint John is missing. He presumably had moved to Saint John by this time.
