My dad’s ancestors came from Canada but going back were United Empire Loyalists, they came from the South and New England to Ontario where they stayed until the mid or late 1800s and then immigrated back to America where they lived in upstate New York.
I am the direct descendant of a Tidewater Loyalist from southern Delaware. My great-grandfather x 5 was commander of the Sussex County Loyalist Militia. Unlike the Loyalists in the North, most of the Tidewater Loyalists never fled to Great Britain or Canada. My ancestor did, but he quickly returned. Surprisingly, most of them were not mistreated too bad after the war. But they held out ‘til the very end. Even well after Yorktown when the British officially pulled out and left, the Tidewater Loyalists kept up the fight in a guerrilla campaign that eventually fizzled out.
@@Bemix666NUCLAR there were other places the Ulster-Scots moved to such as greater Philadelphia where I am from. The Presbyterian church I grew up in was established by Ulster-Scots colonists in the 1760s.

@@patrioticarchive Benjamin Franklin said the same thing, that the American War of Independence was a civil war, because it wasn't just the American colonists fighting the British. They were also fighting their fellow Americans, namely the American Loyalists, or Torys, as they were called, who formed their own armies to fight the "Yankee" rebels. As with the American Civil War of the 1860s, the Revolutionary War sometimes set brother against brother, families against families, whereby one member of a family might be a revolutionary while another member of that same family might be a Tory. This is what Ben Franklin meant when he called the American Revolution a civil war, and he knew what he was talking about, because his own son, William Franklin, was a Loyalist, who, for a time, was the Royal Governor of New Jersey, until he was deposed during the war and imprisoned. After being released, William Franklin formed his own Tory militia to fight the American rebels. Sometimes, they would go overboard in their fighting, commiting atrocities against unarmed civilians, so that William Franklin and his soldiers were little more than terrorists. (Some of the Loyalists would later claim that the REBELS were the terrorists, that they were the ones committing the atrocities, but it has never been proven which side was to blame for the worst crimes against civilians.) Ironically, during the Civil War that we're more familiar with, Confederate sympathizers believed that the South was fighting for its own independence and freedom, just like the American colonists from the previous century. In fact, they sometimes called the war such names as the Second American Revolution, the Second Revolutionary War, the Second War of Independence, the War of Southern Independence, the War for Southern Liberty, the War for Southern Freedom, and so on. Unfortunately, most Americans are unaware of this secret side of the Revolutionary War, and one could blame, believe it or not, the Declaration of Independence itself! While it gave the impression that a united country was fighting against British tyranny, nothing could be further from the truth. It has never been determined how many Americans wanted independence and how many were still loyal to the British Crown. According to one historical account, one third of the colonists approved of the Declaration of Independence, one third considered it an act of treason, and the remaining third were neutral. Most of these facts are rarely, if ever, taught in school.
@@KopperNeoman No, it was Patriots vs Rebels. Maybe in another 150 years when "USA" is just a historical term for that failed little experiment of "Automated freeform Imperialism" we'll get a couple movies explaining the realities of the situation.
America is free. England's king was our kin, but never our sovereign. Nothing would make our people a slave in our own, new land. I thank God for my descent from American independence fighters back then. Long fail the tyranny of any government. Sic semper tyrannus.
The King was never a tyrant though, America just got duped by a bunch of crafty rebels. Had the nation been of any stock other than English, it would of surely fallen apart, take a look at some of the French and Spanish colonies when they rebelled. Why do you think the WASPs held iron rule over American government and her culture until about only just the 1950s? Don't try and paint America as some sort of freedom crusading nation of egalitarian liberal values, across the pond we can all see how your nation operates and the internal systems within.
@@Alfred5555 I don't bekieve in eglitarian, liberal values. I believe in God's Word. I agree with you that English stock is why our "revolution" (it wasn't a true revolution) succeeded. It was a righteous war for independence, unlike the godless rebellions of France that you mention. You've added to my point.
@@valleyscharping Not really, you've just painted yourself into a contradiction. You went form, tyrannical English King and a fight for freedom, to, "it wasn't a true revolution" and you owe everything to the English by virtue of being English. You're just contradicting yourself, either the patriots were righteous fighters against tyranny and therefore endorsed liberal revolutionary values (such as the French, which they did, minus the mass murder, cause we're English). Or, they were a nation of patriots indeed, but duped by seditious rebels who manipulated England's enemies against her and even then only succeeded due to the mercy of Britain and its tolerance of insult. Either way you're still stuck with the wildly liberal and revolutionary enlightenment ideals. Unless your view is that the American revolution was actually conservative and lead by traditionalist British High Tories? In which case, that's an original interpretation of history...But doesn't it mean you believe America has already utterly failed a long time ago? Because it was far from that from the get go.
@@Alfred5555 Nah. I'm not. It was a war to maintain independence that had been established from encroaching English territory. The war and its long term success were as a result of the Christian and English culture inherent to the war efforts. England had no right over the North American Colonies.
@@valleyscharping What are you talking about "maintaining" independence? The founding fathers signed a declaration to no fanfair, in the middle of a seditious war that was beginning that aimed to steal the 13 colonies away from the British Crown. Large number of colonials were loyal to the Crown, in the beginning it was about 1/3 split each way, Rebel, Neutral, Loyal. The only "encroaching" was the Rebels fighting an insurgency across the 13 colonies, while France kept most of Britain's power away from the mainland. England in reality is specifically the only nation with a legal right to North America, if all the territories of the world were returned to their last legal owners, many countries would belong to Britain, hence Canada was British until the 1980's when we literally forced them to be independent. Every essential governmental establishment of statehood the USA now has, England had in the 13 colonies. If you're trying to make a nativist argument, then when are you giving the USA you've spent all this time building back to the Indians? They're the only people with an indigenous claim. You also didn't address anything I said, I guess you realised the contradiction. You just said "nah, it's Christian".
