    3. Hi All For those that are interested in biographies, The Dictionary of Canadian Biography is now online. I am not sure how many of the 15 volumes are available as I have not tried that many searches yet but I know Volume 10 is there and it appears to be complete. For those who have not used the Dictionary it is a priceless source of biographies for furtraders, natives etc. The volumes normally sell for over $100 each and most major libraries in Canada only have them as reference books so you can't take them out. The published Volumes are broken down as follows: Volume 1 1000-1700 Volume 2 1701-1740 Volume 3 1741-1770 Volume 4 1771-1800 Volume 5 1801-1820 Volume 6 1821-1835 Volume 7 1836-1850 Volume 8 1851-1860 Volume 9 1861-1870 Volume 10 1871-1880 Volume 11 1881-1890 Volume 12 1891-1900 Volume 13 to 15 1900+ The Dictionary can be found at http://www.biographi.ca/EN/index.html and it is searchable alphabetically. Enjoy Take care Stan
