After the United States won their war for Independence from the British Empire and became a sovereign nation in 1776, those who had remained loyal to King George III of England did not feel welcome to remain as part of that nation. In appreciation for their loyalty, the King granted these men land in parts of Ontario, the Atlantic provinces and the Eastern Townships of Quebec. Thus were born the American Loyalists, some of this area’s first settlers. Many of West Bolton’s earliest families are of loyalist descent, and were some of the first families to settle the Townships. One of the pioneers of this area, Elkanah Phelps, a loyalist, came to Canada in 1807and is buried in the Hillhouse Cemetery in West Bolton.
