     Peter Russell was born on 11 June 1733 at Cork Co., Ireland; "RUSSELL, PETER, office holder, politician, and judge; b. 11 June 1733 in Cork (Republic of Ireland), only son of
Richard Russell and his first wife, Elizabeth Warnar; d. 30 Sept. 1808 in York (Toronto), Upper Canada." Dictionary of Canadian Biographies, Peter Russell.
Date 1733 & location Cork, Ireland per family tree of jashowell_1 on ancestry.ca, Jan 6 2019.^1,2 He "Peter Russell was the son of an improvident Irish army officer who claimed without much evidence to be related
to the Duke of Bedford. His formal education consisted of boarding for four years with the Reverend Barton
Parkinson, first at Cork and then at Kinsale, where he shared studies and a bed with his first cousin William
WILLCOCKS and where he became “a very pretty Schollar” according to Parkinson." Dict. Cdn. BIOs. circa 1750 at Ireland.² He "In 1754 Major-General Edward Braddock, commanding officer of Russell’s father’s regiment, the 14th Foot, and newly appointed commander-in-chief in North America, advised Russell to go there as a volunteer because chances of a commission were good. Russell arrived in South Carolina on 21 May 1755, but delayed joining Braddock’s army because of sickness, difficulties in communication, and high living. In July he heard of Braddock’s defeat and death, and of his own appointment as an ensign in the 14th, still at Gibraltar. Russell stayed in North America until November, finally arriving in Gibraltar the following May. From July to October 1756 he took part in the second abortive attempt to relieve the garrison on Minorca [see John Byng*]." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 21 May 1755 at South Caroline, U.S.A..² He "After becoming a lieutenant on 8 May 1758, Russell returned to England, became dissatisfied, and “quitted his commission in a pet.” Realizing, however, that he was too old to begin a new career he accepted Lieutenant-Colonel John Vaughan’s offer of a lieutenancy in a new regiment, the 94th Foot, raised for service in North America. Commissioned on 12 Jan. 1760, Russell sailed for North America on 26 August, serving as adjutant and paymaster mostly in the West Indies until the reduction of the regiment on 24 Oct. 1763." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 12 January 1760 at West Indies.² He "In August 1763 Russell arrived in New York owing more than £1,000 after a disastrous final week of gambling in Martinique. Successful gambling in New York enabled him to settle his army accounts; even greater success in Virginia brought him a 462-acre tobacco plantation 42 miles west of Williamsburg. Here Russell lived on half pay for almost eight years, hiding from his creditors and longing for capital to enter the lucrative slave trade. To raise funds he once more tried gambling, but again he lost; to pay his Virginia debts he had to sell his estate and return to England. Arriving home on 14 Oct. 1771, he was beset with demands for payment of his Martinique debts, and in November 1773 he was forced to fly to the Netherlands where he stayed for ten months before returning. After a humiliating residence within the bounds of Fleet prison he was discharged on 7 Oct. 1774 under the Insolvent Debtors Relief Act." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 7 October 1774 at England.² He "War in America once more gave him an occupation. On 15 Aug. 1775 Russell was commissioned lieutenant in an additional company of the 64th Foot raised for the war. For several years he recruited in Ireland; finally on 25 Feb. 1778 he sailed for America because promotions were given only to officers there. He succeeded to the captain-lieutenancy of the 64th on 18 August and in October became an assistant secretary to the commander-in-chief, Sir Henry Clinton." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 18 August 1778 at New York, U.S.A..² He "After taking part in the capture of Charleston, Russell was appointed judge of the Vice-Admiralty Court of South Carolina on 19 May 1780 by Clinton, but this appointment was disallowed and given to a lawyer with prior claim. On 19 December Russell finally received his captaincy in the 64th. He sold it nine months later at an inflationary price of £2,000 just before leaving with Clinton on his unsuccessful attempt to relieve Lieutenant-General Charles Cornwallis at Yorktown, Va. On 1 Jan. 1782 Clinton appointed him superintendent of the port of Charleston and on 15 April captain in the Royal Garrison Battalion, but Clinton’s career in America was over, and on 13 May 1782 he and Russell sailed for England." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 1 January 1782 at Yorktown, Virginia, U.S.A..² He "In 1790, then, when Upper Canada was about to come into existence, Russell was struggling to support himself and Elizabeth on a captain’s half pay, his patron having lost all influence through his quarrel with Cornwallis. Clinton and other fellow officers, including Simcoe whom Russell had met in America, still tried to help, and in the summer of 1790, when Simcoe was promised the lieutenant governorship of Upper Canada, it seemed as if Russell too was to be fortunate. In October he accepted the position of secretary to Andrew Elliott, who was going as British minister to the United States, but Elliott eventually declined the posting, destroying Russell’s prospects. Simcoe then recommended Russell to Home Secretary Henry Dundas on 12 Aug. 1791 for appointment as Upper Canadian receiver and auditor general with seats on the Executive and Legislative councils. The appointments were approved in September, although Russell’s commission was not issued until 31 Dec. 1791 and not received until a year later. He still hoped for something better since he would have to give up his half pay in return for only £300 a year, but when nothing materialized he left England in the spring with his half sister, Chief Justice William Osgoode*, and Attorney General John White*, arriving at Quebec on 2 June 1792." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 2 June 1792 at Quebec, Lower Canada.² He "When Russell arrived in Upper Canada he was 59, much older than most of his colleagues. His closest friends were probably the ablest members of Simcoe’s government – Osgoode, White, and Surveyor General David William Smith* – but he disagreed with White and Smith in their criticism of Simcoe’s autocratic methods. With Simcoe himself he was on good if not cordial terms. He was a faithful member of the councils and did his share in establishing the working machinery of government. Because all senior government officers were ill-paid, bickering over their relative portion of fees began early and continued for many years; in this squabbling Russell also did his share.
In the beginning there were only four executive councillors, with Russell’s name the last on the list. In 1794, however, after Chief Justice Osgoode was transferred to Lower Canada and only one judge was left on the Court of King’s Bench in Upper Canada, it was Russell whom Simcoe appointed a temporary puisne judge, with a salary of £500 a year. On 6 July 1795 Russell took over Osgoode’s former position as speaker of the Legislative Council. " Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 6 June 1795 at Newark, Upper Canada.² He "On 1 Dec. 1795 Simcoe requested leave of absence, and recommended that Russell, “the senior Executive Counsellor, (not a Roman Catholick) and . . . in all respects the proper person” be chosen to administer the government." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 1 December 1795 at York, York Co., Upper Canada.² He "Russell was appointed administrator on 20 July 1796, and on the following day Simcoe left York. At 63, Russell was in a position of authority for the first time in his life." Edith G. Firth, "RUSSELL, PETER," in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. on 20 July 1796 at York, York Co., Upper Canada.² He "Russell’s administration began auspiciously with the peaceful transfer of six border posts from the British to the Americans under the terms of Jay’s Treaty. Even the American occupation of Fort Niagara (near Youngstown), N.Y., within firing range of Fort George (Niagara-on-the-Lake), went off smoothly without the repercussions that were feared. It was a good beginning but Russell’s early days in office were marred by the discovery that Simcoe had left him only 12 official documents, taking with him all his other papers including his correspondence with London and Quebec. Throughout his administration, the unfortunate Russell was ignorant of the intentions of both Simcoe and the British authorities on every aspect of government." in Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 5, University of Toronto/Université Laval, 2003-, accessed May 13, 2025, https://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/russell_peter_5E.html. circa October 1796 at York, York Co., Upper Canada.² He died on 30 September 1808 at York, York Co., Upper Canada, at age 75; "RUSSELL, PETER, office holder, politician, and judge; b. 11 June 1733 in Cork (Republic of Ireland), only son of

My dear Cousin; I was this day favored with your kind letter for which I thank you but am very sorry to find by it that you are so much indisposed and out of spirits which you must not give way to but keep them up and hope for the best. I have spent a very dull month since my brother left home and have not been altogether well. I got a letter from him this morning which gives me hopes of seeing him very soon. I hope you have heard from Ireland and that my cousins are all well. We have no letters or anything from England by the Fleet which is a very great disappointment as I hoped to have heard from all my friends and expected several things I had sent for. You no doubt have seen Mr. White— he and Mr. Pilkington must have had a very disagreeable voyage of it to York as there has been a great deal of rain since they set off. The Mrs. Smiths are well and often inquire about you—when you see Mrs. Maccauley give my love to her and tell her that I was in great hopes of hearing from her but have not had that pleasure. I am glad you have got a House and hope when you unpacked your Wares that you found them all safe from damage. Poor Mary is grown much worse since you left us. We have sent her to a Mrs. Tices who lives on the mountain who is a good kind of a woman and very careful of her. Her cough hag got better since she has been there but she is grown very thin and looks shockingly and I fear she will never recover her health again. I have no news but what you must have heard long ago. I must conclude as Mr. Paxton is going to sail, accept my good wishes and believe me to be your affectionate Cousin; July 19 1796 E. R."

Mary's cough is not worse but she grows very thin and I fear her Temper will not long suffer her to agree with Mrs. Tice with whom I am afraid she is beginning to play her tricks. I am glad I did not know you had a sore throat for it would have made me miserable. Thank God you have got rid of it and hope you will be home at the time you propose Give my good wishes to White.

Bankrupted by Pontiac*’s uprising of 1763, the firm was dissolved, but Askin was not cleared of his debts until 1771. Meanwhile, some time
in the mid 1760s Askin had moved to Michilimackinac (Mackinaw City, Mich.) He ran a trading store in the settlement, was commissary for the garrison, and farmed. It was at Michilimackinac that he formed the close ties with traders Isaac TODD, James MCGILL, and Alexander Henry* that were to be of such significance in his business and personal life. He also established a cordial relationship with Arent Schuyler DePeyster*, commandant during the 1770s, and had likely been on good terms with his predecessors as well. Not only were such friendships valuable in themselves to Askin; they were also important to his economic interests. Commandants were in a position to regulate trade with the Indians, allocate shipping space (private vessels being prohibited on the Great Lakes during and after the American revolution), and tacitly
approve illegal purchases of land from the Indians." Dict. Cdn.
