::The Parchemin database is a tool that finds notarial records from Québec's past compiled by the Société de recherche historique Archiv-Histo. It provides a complete inventory of notarial minutes produced in Canada from 1626 to 1799, totalling 442,402 deeds. The information was entered in the language of the original document. The written form of the names of individuals and locations was respected. Each record informs researchers of the following data regarding a deed: deed type, name of the notary, intervening parties, their trade or profession, marital status, place of origin and place of residence. Presently the period of the documents in the database is 1635 to 1800, but the Society’s own data bank holds millions more, and they will assist you: | ::The Parchemin database is a tool that finds notarial records from Québec's past compiled by the Société de recherche historique Archiv-Histo.
