PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
(1798-1873)
Following the loss of Fort Beauséjour by the French in 1755, the English annexed Île Saint-Jean in 1758. In 1798, "St. John's Island" was renamed Prince Edward Island in honor of the fourth son of King George III. . On July 1, 1873, Prince Edward Island entered the Canadian Confederation..
