Royal Union Flag
our branch sells to raise funds for school education programs,
genealogy research and historic site marking.
This pre-cursor to the Union Jack is the flag our ancestors fought under in
the Revolutionary War, and travelled under as they made
their way north to carve a new home out of the forested wilderness which became Canada.
These flags (above) are made of 100% durable polyester,
are very weather-resistant,
and make excellent gifts. Dimensions are 5 feet by 3 feet.
Our price is the lowest we can find anywhere.
Your choice: $25 in Canadian funds (plus $3 for mailing),
or $20 in U.S. funds (plus $3 for mailing).

This plaque and an identical plaque erected by the Kingston UEL Branch have
prominent positions at the two docks of the Adolphustown to Glenora ferry.
The ferry Quinte Loyalist and a sister vehicle-carrier travel cross the
Bay of Quinte year-round, with a bubble-system helping to soften the thick winter ice.
