Nathan Flint¹

• Birth*: circa 1730¹

• Residence: 1778; Brandon, Orange Co., Vermont, U.S.A.; "The Flint family pilgrimage to Quebec ground to a halt in the newly declared Republic of Vermont, twenty-four kilometers east of Lake Champlain, near the village of Brandon.3 The upstart Republic of Vermont had been carved out of lands long coveted by both New Hampshire and New York with the drafting of the Westminster Conventions.4 Like its heroes, Ethan Allen and the "Green Mountain Boys," Vermont was fiercely independent and although it wasn't British North America, it was as close as Nathan Flint would come to the Loyalist settlements." from "BILLA FLINT, King of Hastings County" by Armand P. La Barge, Kirby Books, 2015, pg. 12.¹
• Residence*: 1778; Skungamug River, Connecticut, U.S.A.; "Nathan Flint had served as a private in Connecticut's Continental Army since 1775, however, he, like countless other late Loyalists, was distrustful of too much democracy. Nathan had come to the realization that "it was better to be ruled by one tyrant three thousand miles away rather than by three thousand tyrants one mile away." So, after the cessation of hostility Nathan decided to relocate the Flint family north of the border to British North America.
  In August 1778, Nathan Flint sold the family gristmill and sawmill that had been constructed on the banks of the Skungamug River by his grandfather fifty-four years earlier, and the family began the difficult journey north to the British colony at Quebec, by way of the old invasion route along the Richelieu River." from "BILLA FLINT, King of Hastings County" by Armand P. La Barge, Kirby Books, 2015, pg. 12.¹

The lumber mill was initially outfitted with "one mulley saw and two small circulars" and it offered "sawn lumber ranging in size from twelve metre long joists to one metre long lathes." In time Flint equipped the mill with over a hundred saws powered by a modern turbine engine imported from Austria-Hungary11 and he boasted "custom sawing and planing done cheaply and timber bills cut to order."" from "BILLA FLINT, King of Hastings County" by Armand P.
