Footnote: Crown land patents are legal instruments issued when a territory in the Crown’s possession, such as a First Nations reserve, is divided and sold to a private individual or corporation. In Canada, First Nations reserves are considered to be federal Crown lands because they are owned by and are in trust to the Crown. The Library and Archives Canada holds a number of the Indian land sale patents issued since 1763, though most of these records are still held in provincial archives. Until 1845, the provincial secretaries for Upper and Lower Canada issued Indian land patents under the province’s Great Seal. Following the 1840 Act of Union between Upper and Lower Canada, the Office of the Registrar General was established for the united Province of Canada, assuming the responsibilities formerly held by the provincial secretaries. By the time of Confederation in 1867, the provinces had become responsible for most Crown land sales, with the exception of lands held in trust for First Nations reserves, which fell under the authority of the federal government. The newly created federal Office of the Registrar General became responsible for issuing Indian land patents across Canada. By 1886, this responsibility had been transferred to the Department of Indian Affairs, which retained the function until 1951. Since then, Indian land patents have been the responsibility of the Registrar General of Canada, though it should be noted that the last Indian land patent was issued in 1990.
Richard Coe was born on October 2, 1875 in Altona County, Ontario, the son of Joseph Coe (1816 - June 25, 1892) and Harriet Ann Corby (March 15, 1847 - September 14, 1911). He was the seventh of eleven children born to the couple. He was 35 years old when he married the 16 year old Ada May Porteous (born April 5, 1895, Sandfield Township, Manitoulin Island, Ontario) on October 17, 1911 in Big Lake, Sandfield Township, Manitoulin Island, Ontario. The couple had four children: Joseph Alexander Coe (January 10, 1913 - June 6, 1979, age 66); Verna Rose Coe (May 19, 1915 - July 25, 2016, age 101); Elizabeth Pauline Coe (April 16, 1917 - unknown); and Marie Florence Coe (1920 - April 19, 1998, age 78). Richard Coe was issued this Indian Land Sale Grant for Lot 5, Concession 6, on January 19, 1918. It is on record that twenty-two years previous, his mother, Harriet Coe, applied for an extension of time to pay arrears on Lot 9, Concession 10, Sandfield Township, on March 14, 1896. Richard Coe died on May 21, 1960, at the age of 84 and is buried in Hilly Grove Cemetery, Assiginack Township, Manitoulin Island, Ontario.
