Licences of occupation in New Brunswick : historical report / Prepared by: Jennifer Ward for Specific Claims, INAC.: R32-392/1999E-PDF

"During the late seventeen hundreds, the Colonial Government began looking for ways to address the land problem in Acadia, therefore, throughout the period of the 1780's to 1830's, they began issuing Licences of Occupation. These Licences allowed native people to occupy and settle various pieces of land throughout New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. Although Licences of Occupation were also given in Quebec, Ontario, and the New England States, this summary will focus only on those given out in New Brunswick"--p. 1.
