The Diary of Rev Frederick Dibblee: New Brunswick, 1803-1826

By Jo Edkins

Rev Frederick Dibblee was born in Connecticut in 1753. He was a Loyalist, who moved to New Brunswick as a result of American War of Independence (the American Revolutionary War). He became pastor of Woodstock, on the St John River.

His diary covers the last two decades of his life. It describes his farming, the crops raised and the livestock, and whether the harvest was good or bad. It mentions the transport of the time, including the problems of horses and sled on the river, when you might fall through the ice! There are accounts of tapping trees for sap to make sugar, or raising barns, and rafting timber.
