It has been a while since I posted before and we have let the frustration subside before asking again. We need help. We will even pay if someone knows how and where to look. We have no clue what to do. We know as fact that John Roe had a Crown Land Grant for Lots 27 and 28 Concession 8 in Alice township in Renfrew County (next to Pembroke) and was on the land and taxed in 1858. We have already seen the land books and know that John proved the land and received a Patent for one lot in 1873 and the other in 1874. I can send anyone who can help a file with the actual page copied. We know as fact that John was on the 1861 census for Alice on this land. He owned this land until 1906. We have tried looking on the archives site for CLG. We have tried what is available in books and on line. What do we do next? We live on the west coast and can't go to the libraries in Ontario and apparently our leaning curve can't figure out what to do. HELP! Bonnie in California

Hi , Just thoughts. Contact the Archive. They will be able to advise. Records are kept of all land transfers/ sales etc - Might be at the department of the Govt - that handles Properties/ Land [ dept name has just slipped my mind ] * Land Records dept ?
