I found information about my family in the Assessment Rolls at the Simcoe County Archives just north of Barrie. They are not online and you have to view the microfilms there, but I found records of my Cameron family in Oro starting in 1853 as well as their neighbours and other Camerons. They were done yearly so you can see if the family moved on. Some years they noted the number in the household and religion as well as the farm location. Each township and municipality have their own listings. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
