Adjutant General's Office : The first Militia Act for the united Province of Canada (9 Vic. ch. 28), passed in 1846, altered little the existing structures and formations in the two provinces of Upper and Lower Canada. While there was a single Adjutant General of Militia, the Adjutant could call upon the assistance of the Deputy Adjutants General in Lower Canada and Upper Canada (the old provincial names were retained within the militia). The act gave them the power to issue of Militia General Orders, to grant commissions, as well as the responsibility for the organization, training, management and discipline of the militia. They, and their small staffs, were the only full-time officers. The Adjutants General of Militia were Colonel Sir Allan Napier MacNab, 30 June 1846; Colonel Plomer Young, July 1846 - July 1847; Colonel George Francis, Baron de Rottenburg, July 1855 - June 1858; and Colonel Patrick Leonard MacDougall, May 1865 - October 1868. The office was vacant for lengthy periods and the Deputy Adjutants General looked after matters in their respective halves of the Province.Additional information:Source of title:Title is based on the contents of the series.Accruals:No further accruals are expected.Source:GovernmentFormer archival reference no.:RG9-I-C -
