Abstract: Isaac Royall Sr. (1677-1739) was born in North Yarmouth in the Casco Bay area of Maine, married widow Elizabeth (Eliot) Oliver in 1697, and moved about 1700 to Antigua in the West Indies, moving in 1737 to Medford, Massachusetts. Isaac Royall Jr. (1719-1781), as a Loyalist, withdrew to Nova Scotia and, when the British army withdrew from the United States, moved to England. Most of his property in the United States was seized and sold, although some was returned after the 1783 Treaty of Paris.
