This enumerator separated Canadians into "U.C." (Upper Canadians) and "L.C." (Lower Canadians). As far as I know, "Lower Canada" refers to the southern part of Ontario that extends down between Lakes Huron, Erie, and Ontario. This location is consistent with Selinda's presumed birthplace, Chatham, ON.
