There are only a few scattered immigration records for Ontario for the period before 1865. There are several incomplete lists of Loyalist settlers in Ontario. For example:
*Crowder, Norman K. '''''Early Ontario Settlers: A Source Book'''''. Baltimore, Maryland: Genealogical Publishing Company, 1993. (Family History Library {{FHL|632644|title-id|disp=book 971.3 H29c}}.) Transcribes and indexes various provisioning lists and returns of settlers during 1783-89.
*Fitzgerald, E. Keith. '''''Ontario People 1796-1803'''''. Baltimore, Maryland: Genealogical Publishing Company, 1993. (Family History Library {{FHL|619385|title-id|disp=book 971.3 D2f}}.) Has district Loyalist rolls.
*'''"Emigrant Returns of early settlers, 1815-1834"'''in ''Land records, ca. 1792-1876''. (Family History Library films {{FHL|283269|title-id|disp=1319966 items 1-5 and 1319967 items 6-11}}.) These are mainly for Lanark, Leeds, and Perth counties. The Archives of Ontario has filmed copies.
