"The Sederquist Family of Granville Township
In information published by Rev. GW Sederquist in the early 20th century, he wrote that his grandfather, John Sederquist, born in Stockholm, Sweden c. 1754 had been forced aboard a British man-o'-war by a "press gang" sometime around 1776. With several others he escaped and took refuge on a merchant ship bound for America. Arriving as the American Revolution broke out, John Sederquist sided with the British. He joined the Queen's Rangers, a battalion raised from Loyalists living in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Rhode Island. The Queen's Rangers participated in a number of conflicts during the war and were included in the surrender of British forces at Yorktown in 1781. Disbanded following the Revolution, many of the former Queen's Rangers, including Sederquist, settled as Loyalists in the Saint John River Valley in New Brunswick. Either in New Brunswick or in Granville, Nova Scotia, John Sederquist married Anne Harvey, a widow born in Paisley, Scotland, with two young sons, George Harvey and Norman Lamont Harvey. The youngest children of John and Anne Sederquist were baptized in Granville.

Notes
General:
Catharine Maria Sedgwick. Her ancestry traces to Robert Sedgwick, who was sent by Oliver Cromwell as governor or commissioner to the Island of Jamaica. One of his descendants, Theodore, rose to be one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts. He was a Federalist, a delegate to the old Constitutional Congress, a supporter of the Constitution, and a member of the first Congress after its adoption. He married the daughter of Brigadier-General Dwight, an officer in the old French War. In 1785 they removed to Stockbridge, Massachusetts, where on the 28th of December, 1789, Catharine Maria, the sixth child and second daughter, was born.
Their oldest son became a distinguished lawyer and politician. Miss Sedgwick's childhood passed happily at home, studying at the little district school, until at the age of thirteen she was sent to a boarding school, and again at fifteen to another one in Boston. After her father's death, in 1813, she superintended the education of the young ladies and girls in the families of her intimate friends, and continued to do so with eminent success for half a century. In 1822 she commenced her career as an author. Her first work, "A New England Tale," which was commenced as a tract, but extended to the size of a novel, appeared anonymously. Her second novel, "Redwood," was republished in England, and translated into the French, Italian, and Swedish languages. In 1827 "Hope Leslie," one of the most popular of American novels, was published. The Reverend Dr. Greenwood pronounced it the best of her three works, and in the "North American Review " wrote as follows; " In all, there is the same purity and delicacy; the same deep and solemn breathing of religion without parade, and of piety without cant or censoriousness; the same love of the grand and lovely in nature, together with the same power so to express that love as to waken it up ardently, devotionally in others; the same occasional touches of merry wit and playful satire; the same glowing fancy; and, spread through all, and regulating all, the same good sense, leading to a right apprehension of human motives, restraining gemus from extravagance, giving an air of reality to the narrative, and securing our constant respect for the narrator." Miss Sedgwick published several other novels, which met with the uniform success that had attended her previous productions. She also became greatly distinguished in a series of practical tales, which she wrote for the purpose of illustrating the ordinary events of everyday life and manners with a moral, and to suggest the improvement of social relations and the development of individual character. In 1838 Miss Sedgwick accompanied her brother, Mr. Robert Sedgwick, and his wife, on a tour through portions of Europe. Upon her return to America she published an account of her European visit containing interesting notices of English life, sketches of the literary people and other celebrities whom she met in various places, and many other items of interest. Miss Sedgwick wrote much for the periodicals, and continued her literary occupations until within a few years of her death, which occurred when she was in the seventy-eighth year of her age. She died in her native place, one of the most beautiful villages of Berkshire county, on the 31st of July, 1867. Here Miss Sedgwick's life was principally passed. A lover of nature in all its forms, she took an unceasing delight in her arden, not confining her attention alone to Unceasing delight in her garden for her flowers, but taking a practical interest in the vegetables and fruits. She was a most valuable member of society. Her frequent breakfast parties were long remembered by those who were favored with an invitation. She greeted her guests with a cordial warmth which set old and young, rich and poor equally at ease, and entertained them by her sprightly conversation. Miss Sedgwick was actively connected with the Women's Prison Association of New York, and the "Isaac T. Hopper Home," for the reception and employment of women discharged from prison. She was, indeed, a friend to the poor, sympathizing with them, and supplying their wants to the best of her ability; visiting prisons and public institutions, and personally ministering to the sick and suffering. Her friend, Mrs. Kemble, wrote: "Perhaps the quality which most particularly distinguished her from other remarkable persons I have known was her great simplicity and transparency of character and charm seldom combined with as much intellectual keenness as she possessed, and very seldom retained by a person living as much as she did in the world, and receiving from society a tribute of
general admiration."
