Best Answer

The Loyalists also called Tories, were Americans who sided with the British in the Revolutionary war. During that war, a number of them fled to Canada, Florida, or the Bahamas. After the peace treaty some came back to their old homes. They were given their property back and nothing else. Some of the American solders received a pension.
