Cette famille est restée en Nouvelle Ecosse. A l''arrivée à Halifax elle fut redevable de 166 livres pour payer la traversée. Au printemps 1753 elle s'installa à Lunenbourg. Après tirage au sort Georges Frédéric BAILLY obtint le lot de terre N° A 40 dans le 'North West Range' d'une superficie de 30 acres. Dans la ville de Lunenbourg il reçu en outre 5 lots dans la division 'Strasburger'. En 1763 il tira encore le lot N° F6 de 300 acres situé dans la 3è division du comté. Bailly servit comme sacristain et maître d'école de l'église française de Lunenbourg formant la partie francophone de l'église anglicane de la ville. Les sermons manuscrits de BAILLY ont été conservés et l'on peut voir qu'il les lut aux Montbéliardais pour remplacer probablement l'absence d'un ministre ordonné de l'église ou pour donner des sermons compréhensibles aux auditeurs francophones. En 1761 BAILLY prêta serment pour sa naturalisation. Parmi les descendants de Gorges Frédéric BAILLY on trouve : - Henri BAILLY (1818-1897) député de Lunenbourg de 1855 à 1863 et greffier pour le comté de 1871 à1897. - Evern Earl BAILLY (1903-1977) peintre très connu de marines. Sa technique était extraordinaire. Il eut la Poliomyélite à 3 ans et paralyqé ne put utiliser un pinceau avec ses mains. Il peignait avec le pinceau tenu entre les dents. xxxxx://www.ancestry.fr/family-tree/person/tree/53898541/person/26044961893/facts?ssrc= Arrivée 6 September 1752 • Halifax Nova Scotia Canada Age: 25 Aboard the sloop Sally with his wife and son Jean Service militaire 26 December 1753 • Lunenburg Nova Scotia Canada Present for potential muster into the Lunenburg Return of Arms - December 26/27 1753 into the Strassburger Division: Document1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ George Frederic Bailly Publié le 04 novembre 2013 par tnash61 Georges-Frédéric Bailly (ca. 1727-1807) (also George Frederick Bailly) of Montbéliard emigrated to Canada at the age of 25 his occupation recorded as farmer. He arrived at Halifax N.S. on the sloop Sally in July 1752 and settled at Lunenburg. In 1754 Bailly was appointed schoolmaster to Lunenburg's French-speaking Protestant congregation by Rev. J.B. Moreau. In March 1761 he was issued a certificate of colonial naturalization. Over the years Bailly acquired extensive land holdings in the Lunenburg area. He died at Lunenburg in 1807 at the age of 80. Bailly and his wife Frederica Sibelle (Richardot) married 31 October 1746 had the following children: Jeanne Marguerite (b. 1753) Catherine Marguerite (b. 1756) Barbara Elizabeth (b. 1758) and Joseph (1761-1842). Joseph Bailly became a cordwainer in Lunenburg and married Elizabeth Schwartz. Their son Henry Bailey (ca. 1818-1897) a baker by occupation and MLA for Lunenburg married Catherine Arenburg in 1842. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Immigration - 'Sally' Publié le 04 novembre 2013 par tnash61 1752 Sally Captain: John Robinson (died on voyage) From: Rotterdam 30 May 1752 Arrival: Halifax between 26 Aug and 6 Sep 1752 but disembark until 26 Sep 1752 because of the sickness and/or lack of housing for the passengers. Encountered long stormy trip. Left with 258 passengers. Arrived with 218 passengers. Many people died during the voyage (15.5 %) or in the first weeks after arrival and several of the children were listed as orphans shortly after arrival. The original ship list was organized by the size of the family. The single men over 15 years old were listed first followed by the men with a wife but no children then by those with a wife and one child etc. The following list has been restructured by locality from the southwest and to the northeast. The single men who were listed separately but were apparently part of a family are included in this list with their parents. It appears that those from northern and eastern German provinces were fewer and usually single young men probably more the adventurers than the more typical family emigration that came from southern German provinces.

She had left Rotterdam at the end of May. Two hundred and eighteen persons came ashore with 40 having died since departing Rotterdam. The authorities at Halifax concerned about the possibility of contagious disease aboard left her at anchor in the Harbour for three weeks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Livestock Publié le 04 novembre 2013 par tnash61 In addition to receiving Garden Lots for growing vegetables and cereals the early settlers needed live stock to supply meat. So during the summer of 1754 the authorities contracted for live stock to be purchased in New England and transported to Lunenburg. There were two such deliveries. The first delivery occurred in September 1754 and consisted of 74 cows 847 sheep 125 pigs and 188 goats. The second consignment landed December 18 1754 from Captain Stourts Vessel and consisted of 145 sheep and 36 pigs plus a few chickens. The distribution was done by pairing married men together and then drawing lots for the September delivery. The first pairing of married men received 1 cow and 1 sheep to share the remainder of paired married men received either 6 sheep 1 pig and 1 goat or 5 sheep 1 pig and 1 goat or 4 sheep and 2 goats possibly in proportion to the size of their families. Single men were also paired into three groups for the September consignment: 'good' single men 'indefferent' single men or 'bad' single men with the last group being slightly larger than the other two combined. The 'good' received 3 sheep 1 pig and 1 goat while the 'indefferent' and 'bad' men received 3 sheep and 2 goats. The December consignment was generally given to individuals many of whom had already received live stock.

Lunenburg Town Lots - These 40 x 60 foot lots in the town were assigned by a random draw before the settlers left Halifax in May 1753. The original records have not been discovered. However Dr Bell located what are called Division Returns List of 1754 which he abstracted and were used here. A followup 1762 Registry of Town Lots List was compiled in 1762 and a microfilmed copy found at the South Shore Genealogical Society (SSGS) in Lunenburg was used. See Maps of Town. 2. Garden Lots - These 70 x 160 ft lots just east of the town were given to settlers so that they could grow their own food. They were assigned about 1753. The data presented here come from a list of lot assignments as of 1762 (available on microfilm at the SSGS). See Maps of Garden Lots. 3. 30 Acre Farm Lots - These lots assigned by a random draw were generally around the coast line or along the eastern bank of the LaHave River. Dr Bell's summary of a List of Distribution of 30 Acre Lots 1753/4 and a Registry of 30 Acre Lots of 12 Jun 1760 (available on microfilm at the SSGS) were consulted. See Maps of 30 Acre Farm Lots. 4. 300 Acre Forest Lots - For this Index data was taken from a Registry of 300 Acre Lots prepared about 1767(available on microfilm at the SSGS). See Maps of 300 Acre Farm Lots. 5. Township Grants of 1784 - Although the early settlers were able to sell/buy/exchange/will the land granted to them they did not formally 'own' the land until 1784 when the authorities 'legalized' the land holdings. The documentation only recognized the total acreage held at that time by individuals and did not specify location. This link is to Cathy DiPietro's site and was taken from M.B. DesBrisay's book 'History of the County of Lunenburg' Although not a part of the Index on this page there is another Index to Lunenburg County Land Sales 1759-1775 available.

In his book 'History of the County of Lunenburg' (p 47) M B DesBrisay quotes others 'On July 30th 1756 Captain John Steignfort with fifty armed men went from Lunenburg to the Basin of Minas and drove away 120 head of horned cattle and a number of horses being part of the confiscated property of the French Acadians. The party returned to Lunenburg September 3rd with sixty oxen and cows the rest having perished on the way - all the horses included.' In researching his book Winthrop Bell came across a list of 282 names of Lunenburg settlers labelled as having to do with this expedition. Bell was unable to determine a convining connection to the cattle drive although he noted that the small groups tend to consist of near neighbours (at 30 acre farm lots). They are listed in 47 groups of six each. Five of the names in each grouping were written in normal horizontal fashion while the sixth was written vertically alongside. Since not all of the adult male settlers were on the list Bell speculates (page 500 of his book) '(perhaps each group being represented on the expedition by one of its members the others undertaking between them to do his farm work while he was away) and that those whose names are lacking did not see fit to join in the venture.' BAILLYGeorge Frederick Bailley ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Voyage on The Sally Publié le 08 novembre 2013 par tnash61 The British governing board that looked after the settlement of Nova Scotia sought out foreign (i.e. non-British) protestants. The English were hard to persuade to emigrate and often did not work out very well as settlers. The colonies to the south had had good results with foreign protestants and found them very hard-working and capable of settling new areas so it was decided to recruit European protestants for Nova Scotia as well. Roman Catholics were not welcome. The British government hired John Dick of Rotterdam as their agent to procure the emigrants and arrange for their transport to Nova Scotia. Dick sent agents up the Rhine River to find settlers. Posters and handbills were used to get the word out that the new colony of Nova Scotia was open for settlement. There was a lot of competition between agents for the various colonies in those days and competing agents spread rumours about how awful the Nova Scotia climate was the lack of agricultural prospects and the ferociousness of the Indian attacks. Also once settlers arrived at Rotterdam they were sometimes convinced by another agent to sail for another colony. Settlers were responsible for their own passage down the Rhine although Dick's agents would help to arrange it. Tolls had to be paid along the way as the boats moved through different principalities and this would also slow down the voyage. The settlers were mostly redemptioners. This meant that in return for their passage across the Atlantic they owed the British government labour when they arrived in the new colony. Some passengers with the means to pay their own way chose to be redemptioners instead so that they could save their money to help them get established in their new land and this was likely a good idea. The board preferred as much as possible that young single men be recruited but in actual fact many families and even older family members made the voyage. This was probably for the best in the long run as records show that the families were more likely to remain in Nova Scotia and settle down there. There were some complaints from the board as to fact that older people were allowed to make the voyage but entire families often moved together and it was not really reasonable in those days of no social services to expect the old to be left behind. As well emigrants aged 45 or more would be considered relatively old back then! The emigrants were put aboard ships in Rotterdam. Conditions were rough! The emigrants were carried on the'tween decks of the ship and the average height of the deck was only 5 1/4 to 5 1/2 feet. The bedplaces for '4 whole freights' were 6 feet square. ( 4 freights was equivalent to 4 adults over the age of 14. Kids 4-14 were considered a half freight and under 4 were carried free so had no space allocated to them.) Berths were raised wooden structures with a space underneath them for baggage. Berths were not completely divided off from each other in order to allow air to circulate. The headroom within the berth was less than 4 feet and sometimes as low as 2' 9' in those places where there was room for double berths. Altogether it sounds rather claustrophobic and crowded. Some of the ships stopped in England to replenish their food and water before setting out on the ocean crossing. Food and drink was often scanty and insufficient with food turning putrid and wormy before the end of the voyage and water being incredibly foul especially towards the end of the voyage. The water would have a disgusting smell and taste and there were often long green slimy growths within the water supply. Sometimes gin brandy or possibly even vinegar would be added when drinking it to make it more palatable. Vinegar was also sometimes sprinkled around because of the stench in the air. At that time sickness was believed to come from the air and to counteract the smell on the ship it was believed that that would counteract disease to some degree. Here is a schedule of rations for one week for one of Dick's ships: 'Sunday: 1 lb boiled beef with as much boiled rice as they can eat. Monday: Barley or grout (groats) boiled which they eat with treacle as much as will. Tuesday: 1 lb boiled beef with as much boiled rice as they can eat. Wednesday: Barley or rice boiled as on Mondays. Thursday: 1/2 lb Porke and a pound of flower (flour) Friday: As much stock fish (dried salt codfish) boiled as they choose and one pound of butter. Saturday: Boiled pease (dried peas) and a pound of cheese. 'With a measure (a measure=1 quart) of beer every day as long as it keeps good and 2 measures of water and 6 lbs of bread per week and some gin to be distributed by the captain as he sees fit.' Children received half the rations of adults. Emigrants may have had to prepare some of their own food on ship it is not really known. Fire grates on deck for cooking were common on ships of that time although at least some of the food on Dick's ships seems to have been provided cooked. One account from that time but not from one of these ships tells of passengers collecting on deck and taking turns at the fire grates to make a sort of bannock out of their flour ration which was often burnt on the outside and still doughy in the middle. Children aged 1-7 often died on the voyage especially the infants. When the ships arrived at Halifax they were detained for a period of 5-21 days due to illness or there being no place to put the new immigrants. After spending a couple of months at sea and some time before departure back in Europe cooped up on ship it must have been very frustrating to have arrived at their destination and not be allowed off for a period of several more weeks in some cases! All ships except the Ann had ventilators that were supposed to run 1 hour out of 4 to exchange air in the hold with fresh air except during stormy weather. Many of the ships also had a 'physician' of sorts and there was a medicine chest. Many of these physicians were very young and training for doctors in those times was not very rigorous.
