An untitled manuscript known as “The Grandmother’s Story”, written about 1880 by Georgianna Fisher of Fredericton. She committed to paper the stories told to her by her grandmother Mary Barbara Fisher, who had died in 1841, describing the coming of the loyalists to New Brunswick in the autumn of 1783 and the harsh conditions at Fredericton that winter. The manuscript has proved remarkably accurate where there is corroborating evidence from other sources;
it preserves the voice of a woman of humble origins in the midst of expulsion from her home and settlement in a new land. The manuscript is still owned by a descendant of Mary Barbara Fisher today. Credit: Joan Golding Marien.
