The Crown’s mark under the Dorchester Order in Council of 1789: the post-nominal U.E., borne by those who adhered to the Unity of the Empire before the Treaty of Paris of 1783, and by their posterity. It is the Crown’s mark, not a society’s courtesy, and the officer the 1796 Simcoe Proclamation designated to receive and record the ascertainment on oath is the magistrate. It is not an honour of the Nation and is not in the Nation’s order of wear; it is set out here because it is often confused with one.
This page is the Nation’s own, and the work behind it is still being built. What is written above is what it will hold.
