Just to add my two cents worth - Deaths are actually available from 1872-1984 and marriages are available 1872-1929 not the reverse. Glad to see someone else's fingers don't always do what the old brain is thinking. <G> Carol Lylyk Calgary, ----- Original Message ----- From: "Melanie" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2005 4:38 PM Subject: [CAN-BC] Vancouver area births, deaths and marriages | Hi Helen, | | You can go to the B.C. Archives site to get the births, deaths and marriage | records for B.C. It is at: | http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/index.htm. At the top of the page just | click on Vital Events, then on the next page click on On-line Images. | Births are only available from 1872-1903, deaths are only available from | 1872-1929 and marriage records are only available from 1872-1984. | Once you find the record that you are interested in, you need to make note | of the microfilm number and the registration number for each record you want | a copy of. You can click on the little blue number next to the record that | you found and it will take you to the digital image order page. Then you | can either order them right from the archives site but it costs quite a bit | for each copy, $19.95, but they will email it to you or there might be some | kind person on this list that may be able to get a copy for you from one of | the libraries that has copies of the microfilms or from. The library's do | charge a very small copying fee for using their copy machines though. Hope | this helps some. | | Melanie. | | | | | | -- | No virus found in this outgoing message. | Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. | Version: 7.0.308 / Virus Database: 266.8.4 - Release Date: 27/03/2005 | | | ==== CAN-BRITISH-COLUMBIA Mailing List ==== | To New Subscribers : The online indexes to British Columbia Vital Records are at | http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca:9000/sn-301BDDB/bsearch | These records are freely available and there are several possibilities for accessing them at a low cost. | |
