Hello, I have just joined this list and thought that the following might be of interest. While researching vital statistics at the Ontario Archives this past week, I copied one birth and 10 marriage certificates of 'Cronks' who were either born or resided in the United States but were married in Ontario. The indexes and documents are found under Record Group 80 (Records of the Office of the Registrar General of Ontario) Currently the records cover the years 1869-1900 for Births; 1869-1915 for Marriages; 1869-1925 for Deaths.
