==Township Books==
Births, marriages, and deaths are recorded in township books beginning in about 1760, when settlers from New England came to Nova Scotia. The township books were discontinued beginning about 1860. Townships were never established on Cape Breton Island, and the township books covered only part of the rest of the province. Marriages recorded in the books may be as early as 1702 and as late as 1920.
