Charles Stewart was one of the big Canadian badge collectors from the 60's and I think, through the 90's? He put together a couple of collector's references, the one on the lineages and one on the CEF. His sources are cited in the copy that I have, and it is a list of some 27 different ones, including the main one, Militia GO's from 1854 until 1940. The version I have is the 1982 revised edition. (As a note, I believe that Gene Ursual purchased the Stewart collection or significant portions of it recently. He was selling badges from it a couple of years ago IIRC.)
Mike I think that you have one of the earlier versions. There were some significant changes in the revision. There was also an addendum put together for the revised edition, but the changes were minor.
