King William's War 1689-1697

Search Revolutionary War Recordsicon, Civil War icon, WW1 Records icon, WW2 Records icon
This North American War was waged by William III of Great Britain and the League of Augsburg against France under Louis XIV. Canadian and New England colonists divided in support of their mother countries and, together with their respective Indian allies, assumed primary responsibility for their own defense. The British, led by Sir William Phips, captured Port Royal, Acadia (later Nova Scotia), but failed to take Quebec. The French and Indians under the Count de Frontenac carried out successful attacks on Schenectady, N.Y., Salmon Falls (in present New Hampshire), and Casco Bay (in present Maine) but failed against their main target--Boston. The protracted war ended with the Treaty of Rijswijk (1697). Because of the importance of Indian participation, it is also known as the first of the four French and Indian Wars.

The Olive Tree Genealogy is dedicated to bringing you primary sources such as passenger lists, muster rolls, church records and more, FREE of charge. The following section is part of my ongoing committment. I appreciate your patience while I find datbases and information for all to use freely. Since I maintain these pages alone (I have no staff and I'm not part of a library) I can always use help. If you would like to assist me in bringing free genealogical data to The Olive Tree for all to use, please read my Become a Friend of The Olive Tree page for details on how you can easily be a part of The Olive Tree Family.
