Little Forks Branch, United Empire Loyalists' Association of Canada

Little Forks is one of 27 local branches of The United Empire Loyalists' Association of Canada, and one of three branches in Quebec, along with Heritage Branch in Montreal and the Sir John Johnson Branch in the Townships. All branches share the same mission: to unite together, irrespective of creed or political party, the descendants of those families who, during the American Revolutionary War of 1775 to 1783, sacrificed their homes in retaining their loyalty to the British Crown; to perpetuate a spirit of loyalty to the Empire; to preserve the history and traditions of that period in Canadian history by rescuing from oblivion the history and traditions of the Loyalist families; to collect together the portraits, documents, books, weapons, flags, monuments, memorials, and all other articles pertaining to the Loyalists, which are now scattered throughout Canada and elsewhere; to publish a historical and genealogical journal or annual transactions; to construct and repair buildings, monuments, memorials, and to purchase real estate and other things that may serve to perpetuate the memory of the United Empire Loyalists. All descendants of United Empire Loyalists are entitled to use the initials "U.E." after their names.
