General Canadian sites or more specific (Nova Scotia/Quebec/Ontario/British Columbia/Metis)? Have you used Cyndi's List, as most sites are accessible through her. http://www.cyndislist.com/ Jim. ----- Original Message ----- From: "E.

Elaine A good place to start is with posting the names, dates, locations, sibllings and any family stories that may go with these individuals. Records and locations vary a great deal depending on when and where. Even the time period makes a great difference. Ontario today, for the most part was upper Canada as was a good portion of Quebec. Before Upper and Lower Canada you had New France and Acadia. Some Acadians migrated west to the Quebec region and some people just settled in Quebec on arrival from the Old World. Many possibilities, many records and about 400 years to choose from. Never know! You may have relatives right on this list.
