Cornelius
Vollick, son of Isaac Van Valkenburg aka Vollick, left New York during
the American Revolution. Eventually the family arrived in the wilderness
of Upper Canada in 1782 as impoverished Loyalists. They settled in the
Niagara area with other disbanded soldiers from Butler's Rangers. There
Cornelius met and married Eve Larroway the daughter of another Loyalist
who fought with Butler's Rangers. With their 9 children Cornelius and
Eve carved a life in this new land. Descendants will find documents,
photographs, newspaper clippings and information about Cornelius and Eve
and their children and grandchildren in this 110 page Family history
book.
The book From
Van Valkenburg to Vollick: V. 2 Cornelius Vollick and his Follick and
Vollick Descendants to 3 Generations is available on Createspace and on
Amazon.com
Sadly I have no control over when it might appear on Amazon for Canadians but both companies above ship to Canada. For descendants eagerly waiting for Volume 3 - the story of Storm Follick and his descendants -- it's coming soon!
