Saskatchewan Archives’ booklet



The Saskatchewan Archives’ booklet Build Better Projects highlights the many ways that the archives is available to assist with initiatives and projects.

The description on their website says “Whether you plan to enhance your web presence, create a celebratory program or display, or have special projects that would benefit from the use of archival materials, consider using our many resources and consulting with our archivists. As custodian of the history of this province, the Archives holds an amazing collection of documentary materials in many formats for your use”.

The website where you can download a PDF copy of the booklet, is at http://www.saskarchives.com/sites/default/files/pdf/sask_archives_booklet_apr_7-15_fnl_file_for_web.pdf

Happy Researching!

Quebec Marriage Contract Index, 1761-1941

This is an Index des contrats de mariage, Québec, Canada, 1761 à 1946 at Ancestry.com, taken from the original notary data at the Bibliothèque et Archives Nationales du Québec (BAnQ).

It is especially useful with the earlier marriages because they can be included in the notary records rather than at the church records, so they deserve a look.
