Records of the Bay or Quinte
1829 Petition for Prince Edward County to become a District
1830 Petition for Prince Edward County to become a District
Background
See the lengthy preamble on the 1830 web page. In 1831, after the third petition, Prince Edward County became a District.
There are 3 petitions that have been found so far for Prince Edward County to become a District. They are this one in 1828 and two more in 1829, 1830. All are transcribed on their own web page and collectively they provide a substitute census.
This
petition was submitted with six separate pages of
signatures. The text of the petition can be seen from the link below
and it is very similar in wording to the petitions of 1829 and 1830.
Signatures
can
be a challenge to transcribe. Let me know if you think I have misread
some and I will double check.
