jun 1, 1782 - By 1782, the British knew that they had lost the war, so the British started to prepare to leave. They also left a number of black slaves, and they were recaptured into slavery. Others went to Florida, the West Indies, and British North America (Canada), and settled. Most went to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
