History
The Land Boards for the Hesse, Nassau, Luneburg and Mecklenburg Districts were established in 1789 to grant certificates of location to the early settlers in what shortly became the province of Upper Canada. The Boards were formally abolished in 1794, when the procedures for the management of land grants came under centralized control through the Executive Council Office.
