Excerpt from The Loyalists Of America:


" During the late war with the United States, in 1812, Colonel [Joseph] Ryerson and his three eldest sons took an active part in the defence of the country. He was for many years a magistrate and Chairman of the Quarter Sessions; but he would never accept of any fees as a magistrate."
