a great majority of loyalists would have been wealthy,
landed business owners in the Northeast. They had the most to lose if the revolution
didn't work. They were also most likely to be connected to business owners in the UK and
even carry family name or title there. Included in this group would have been 1st and
2nd generation gentry (upper class, entitled) people. Most of the revolutionaries came
from more blue collar backgrounds or were from established lineages and multiple
generations on the continent who were further separated from the mother
country.
