__NOTOC__
==Quebec Information==
Quebec is located in Central Canada. The province shares borders with the provinces of Ontario to the west, Newfoundland and Labrador to the northeast, New Brunswick to the southeast and a coastal border with the territory of Nunavut. In the south, it shares a border with the United States. It was then called Lower Canada until 1841, when it was then called Canada East until 1867. Quebec's official language is French.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Quebec" in Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec (accessed 28 Feb 2025).</ref> ''See [[Quebec History|Quebec History]] for more information.''

==Historic Counties==
|moderator=<!-- Add moderator BELOW -->
Historic counties are listed below as government records were created in this jurisdiction. Counties in Quebec were reorganized in 1979 into "regional County Municipalities (MRC). However, the regional county municipality jurisdiction is not used in the vital records system, and therefore has little meaning for genealogy. Each county page, under "History" lists the modern RCMs associated with that county.<ref>"County," The Canadian Encyclopedia https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/county, accessed 28 February 2025.</ref><br>
