A few of them left and were given tracts of land in the Northwest Territory. That's why Refugee Road runs through Franklin and Licking Counties in Ohio...
I didn’t know that. Amazing the things I learn on Poal.
During the Independence War, some Territory of Canada citizens fought on our side. They couldn't go back to Canada, so they were given the option of accepting land here. There's a big old brick house in Reynoldsburg on Livingston Avenue (that some niggers got hold of and painted it gray...) that's supposedly the last refugee tract accepted by a ex-pat Canadian.
