-== Tips  ==
-=== What if I did not find my ancestor's name in the parish records?  ===
-Your ancestor may be listed in the parish records but with a different spelling of his or her name. For suggestions on how the name might be spelled, see [[Name Variations in Canadian Indexes and Records|Name Variations in Canadian Indexes and Records]].
-If an ancestor or family were in the parish registers, yet seems to disappear, he may have gone into the fur trade. Consider searching the Internet for "Hudson's Bay Company Archives" and other searches.
-=== What if I cannot find records for my ancestor's parish?  ===
-If you cannot find a church marriage record, look in the notarial records for a marriage contract. About two-thirds of the marriages before the mid-1800s had marriage contracts.
-For information about notarial records, see [[Quebec Notarial Records|Quebec Notarial Records]].
-Several genealogical dictionaries also have marriage information. One of the most important is Cyprien Tanguay's, ''Dictionnaire généalogique des familles canadiennes (Genealogical Dictionary of French Canadian Families)''.
-For information about other genealogical dictionaries, see the [[Quebec Genealogy|Quebec Genealogy]].
-=== How can I find where a parish is and what diocese it is in?  ===
-Some of the parishes of Québec and the counties to which they belong are in ''Répertoire toponymique du Québec'' (Geographic Names of Québec). Text in French. Localities are listed alphabetically. For each locality, this book lists the canton (township), if applicable, and the division de recensement (the census division, which in this case is the county).
-Information about parishes, which includes dates they were founded and their locations, is in:
-*Magnan, Hormisdas. ''Dictionnaire historique et géographique des paroisses, missions et municipalités de la Province de Québec'' (Historical and Geographical Dictionary of Parishes . . .). Text in French.
