Officers of the British Forces in Canada During the War of 1812-15 provides carefully researched lists of officers who served during the War of 1812. The lists were built from a wide variety of records including the records of the grant of land made in Upper Canada (Ontario) to officers, non-commissioned officers and men who had served in "the first flank Companies, the Provincial Artillery, the Incorporated Regiment, the Corps of Militry Drivers, the Provincial Dragoons, the Marine and General Staff of the Army. And, in Lower Canada (Quebec), the officers and men of the Embodied Militia, discharged troops and others.

The foregoing sources were supplemented by names from pay lists, appointments and promotions as published in Militia Orders, returns, petitions, correspondence, Army lists, obituaries in newspapers and miltary magazines, General Service Medal lists, and Gold Medals lists.
