Hello,
Thanks for writing. I am descended from Alvah Gaffin's sister, Elizabeth. She married Luke Bailey. I have not researched the Hoverland family that extensively, although they were in the same area of Canada as the Gaffins. I believe Nancy's father was Harmonius, son of Andrew Hoverland. From what I have gathered, Andrew was with the Butler's Rangers as a loyalist. Does this seem to be the same Hoverland? They owned land in Willoughby, on the District of Niagara. Nancy and Alvah were married there and then came to Ogle County, IL. I do have more information on the Gaffins. Many of the family members are buried in Ogle County.
I'm glad to share information if I would have anything that you don't already have. You probably have more on the Hoverlands then I do.
Sue

From private collection of Leslie R. Gray, Past President of Ontario Historical Society:

Andrew Hoverland, formerly of Tryon Co., NY, but born in Germany, joined the British forces during the American Revoulution and fought under Col. Butler in Butler's Rangers. He had 200 acres in Tryon Co. for which he gave two years service to Col. Crawford. He had cleared 40 acres before the war and had 13 horned cattle, 3 horses, 12 hogs, furniture, utensils, all lost to the rebels.

Above included in a letter written November 2, 1958 from Catherine Gaffin Lynn

ROSTER OF BUTLER'S RANGERS

This list is based on the one compiled by A. H. Van Dusen in his article "Butler's Rangers", which was published in the journal New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Vol. 31 (1900), pages 12-18.

This roster is based on two sources: the list of disbanded Rangers who settled at Niagara, reported by Lieutenant Colonel A. S. De Peyster in 1784, as printed in the Report on Canadian Archives, 1891 (Ottawa, Queen's Printer, 1892), pages 2-5; and, the "old U.E. List", which was published as "Appendix B" to The Centennial of the Settlement of Upper Canada by the United Empire Loyalists, 1784-1884... (Toronto, Rose Publishing Company, i 88~) pages 129-334. (This book was reprinted, with a new introduction by Milton Rubin-cam, by the Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore, in 1969).

The names taken from the De Peyster list are marked with an asterisk (*) and are additional to the names found in the "Old U.E. List".

Hoverland, Andrew*

This is what is recorded in An Annotated Nominal Roll of Butler's Rangers 1777-1784 , compiled and arranged by Lt. Col. Wm. A. Smy. pages 101/2
