The Abbotts: a Devonshire immigrant family in Canada explores the history of a large middle class family who made the decision to emigrate from Devon, England to settle in south western Ontario in the 19th century. The choice to emigrate was not made lightly. The journey was arduous for the family with an expectant mother and 7 children, but the rewards of moving to the new Dominion of Canada were compelling. The book explores the ancestral history of the Abbott Family in Devon, the reasons they left, the settlement of the first generation immigrants in Ontario with their accomplishments, their challenges and their sorrows. It also focuses on the family's annual reunion which spanned 100 years. It will appeal to those interested in the ongoing immigrant experience in Canada as well as those who may reflect on their own family's journey to a new life in a new place. Ultimately, it is a well researched genealogical study of one family's experience, revealing so much about the immigrant experience of Canadians.
