| The table
below lists marriage returns and certificates,
death returns and certificates, a single burial permit and
correspondence concerning marriage registrations received
by the Registrar General. Most of the records in
this series are marriage returns (1858-1869) of various
clergymen and ministers from Dundas County. Despite the
number of returns there are very few registrations recorded
in this series. Therefore, there is only a very slim chance
of locating any particular registration that may be required.
The majority of these files, which were probably sent to
the central office of the Registrar General by local Division
Registrars, form a portion of a large container of files
remaining with the Registrar General, which will gradually
be transferred to the custody of the Archives of Ontario.
One file consists of documents received from the United
Church of Canada Archives.
To view the microfilm you may:
- Consult the appropriate reel at our reading room on
the ground floor, 77 Grenville St., Toronto.
- Borrow the reel through the Interlibrary Loan Department
of your public library. Quote MS 947
and the appropriate reel #. These reels
cannot leave the borrowing library, so make sure to request
them from a library that has a microfilm reader.
- Borrow the film from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints through their Family
History Centres. The Family History Centres
have a different numbering system than the Archives of
Ontario. These Genealogical Society of Utah (GSU) conversion
numbers have been provided in the right hand column of
the table below or, for a complete list of all GSU conversion
numbers, consult the Microfilm
Conversion List.
When you receive the reel, find the correct year on the
microfilm and look up the registration number within it.
