For those new to New Brunswick research, I offer the below online sites that have information on New Brunswick folks. There are many more sites dedicated to specific counties, where further information can be obtained. It is prudent to check each one of the below because they do not necessarily overlap in their information. Occasionally, information found one place contradicts information found in another place. Each site has its own way of navigating and it is important to remember those details. Because all information has been transcribed by volunteers and is limited to what is viewed on the microfilm, be creative in the spelling of your surname. There are also transcribed county Marriage Registers, available for purchase from PANB. In the York series of books, it is incredible the number of marriages recorded in York County when the couples resided in other counties. So don't overlook information from York County. Our hunt for our ancesters is a composite of whatever information we can glean about them. And the hunt is the fun part, most of the time. Hope this helps someone out there. I'm sure others on the list can add even more sites. Sara PANB = http://archives.gnb.ca/Archives/Default.aspx The search engine allows you to search a surname by 'exactly', 'begins with', 'contains'. PANB offers vital statistics, marriage bonds, cemetery information, plus Dan Johnson's Newspaper Extracts. FIRST FAMILIES = http://nbgs.automatedgenealogy.com/firstfamilies/ First Families seems to be family submitted genealogies about the earliest families. I have found occasionally that the information is limited or conflicts with other information that I have found elsewhere CENSUS - AUTOMATED GENEALOGY = http://www.automatedgenealogy.com/index.html If you click on PANB at the end of the census line, you can bring up marriage, birth, death information for that person. By changing the given or surname name, you can search for others in your family. However, it is limited to an exact spelling of the surname, so be creative in its spelling if your surname is unusual. Something as simple as adding an 'e' on the end may bring up the person you are seeking. LDS = http://www.familysearch.org/ Mostly there is family submitted information. Given the spellings used for place names, often it was not submitted by someone local to that area. So be careful with their information, and use the above more local sites to verify the information.
I am usually pretty quiet, But there is NO need to be so rude. The woman was good enough to offer to do some research for people. NOT all of us are as smart and knowledgeable as you "cknox." We do not know everything that is available on line. Lack of that knowledge does not make us stupid nor does it make us lazy. If you see someone ask for information just let them know that the information is available on line and where on line they might find it. Thank you Pan for the offer.

Hi Diane & Gerry, I don't know how much help this is going to be as I'm fairly low on the learning curve of things military myself but I happen to know that there was a sort of diary kept by regular military units in times of peace - at least after the Gt War. The records are called "Part II Orders" (the II being a roman 2.) These were a 'page per day" records of significant events - if there were any, including people joining. people leaving, people sick and people "in trouble." The place to start looking for these would be the regimental / battalion records office / museum. A repeat word of caution. The ones I've seen were for the 1920's period and they were for a 'regular" unit - not a militia unit. I hope this isn't a red herring. Malcolm Archive CD Books Canada Inc.

I did request a look up on my Jeremiah Crossman to see if a death was printed for him or his wife. While I knew that Danny news papers were on the web, I am UNABLE to go into them because my webtv won't let me in. Yes, I still have Webtv, because Santa didn't stop at my house this past Christmas, because I was a bad boy. As soon as it was reported that the archives were accepting donations to pay for Dan's material, I sent one right in. So there are some like me who would appreciate a look up. Don In Lynn, MA.

Just remember that because Pam only has specific volumes of Vital Statistics in New Brunswick, you may be missing out on finding ancestors for other years in the online database, which is complete and holds all of the volumes prepared by Daniel Johnson. Still, it is very kind of her to offer to take the time to do lookups!

Hi: My David Drake Buchanan and wife Salome Ketchum, both born 1824 in St. John, N.B. went to Bath, Maine where 2 of their 9 children were born--George Owen Buchanan and Sarah Elizabeth Buchanan. In 1854 they sailed in a schooner up the coast to Isaac's Harbour, Nova Scotia where they settled for a number of years. Question: would the 2 children have birth records in Maine? where would they be registered? and would they be registered in Canada or just show up in census records? Thanks.

Hello Bill, Thanks for the clarification. I didn't know that the 74th was a Militia Regiment. I haven't read a lot about different regiments in the First W. War, but am familiar with the more commons ones, like the 85th and 106th. At the moment, I am just trying to get a handle on the regiments of the Second W. War, where they served and which ones dissolved once they reached England. I do not have a military background, so started with an 'empty war history bucket' when I began the research on the veterans. Because my father didn't want to talk about what happened while he was overseas, we were not allowed to watch war movies or documentaries or discuss war like things. My only lessons were at school and now I know they were very poor. We learned nothing about the Canadians in any war expect for the War of 1812.

Glad to help if I can. Looks like you misunderstood my message. The 74th. was a Militia Regiment. It was not regular army, which is what the war diaries covered. Records of militia before 1915 are sporadic and cover probably only muster rolls and payrolls. After 1915, they began keeping better records, but even so, there isn't a lot.
