Lot 65 is a township in Queens County, Prince Edward Island, Canada. It is part of Hillsboro Parish. Lot 65 was awarded to Richard Wright and Hugh Owens in the 1767 land lottery.[1] In 1796, then-Lieutenant Governor Edmund Fanning granted Lot 65 to fellow Loyalist Andrew Ladner, with Louisa Augusta Fanning and Peter MacGowan as witnesses.[2] Both Fanning and Ladner were Loyalist immigrants from the newly formed United States. Andrew Lander died in 1836 and is buried on the lot,[3] in the location now known as Nine Mile Creek.
