Rebellion of 1837
Type of Record Location of Record Ordering Information Comments
During the 1820s and 1830s the political situation in Upper and Lower Canada deteriorated. In each colony, groups of reformers demanded powers for the Legislative Assemblies. This lead to rebellions in 1837 and 1838 in both Upper Canada (now the province of Ontario) and Lower Canada (now the province of Quebec). Reform partisans led by Louis-Joseph Papineau in Lower Canada and William Lyon Mackenzie in Upper Canada were called Patriots. Thirteen Patriots were executed, and 86 others were transported to Australia. You can search for archival sources in the General Index. Records relating to the settlements of claims for losses suffered during the rebellions of 1837 and 1838 in Upper and Lower Canada are found in the Department of Finance fonds (RG19-E-5-c and RG19-E-5-b). They are indexed by name in Archives Search. On the search screen, enter a surname and Rebellion Losses Claims.
