Archives collect and preserve original documents created by organizations such as churches or governments. Libraries generally collect published books, maps, microfilms, and other sources. This section describes major repositories of Canada’s genealogical and historical records. Many archives have Web sites. To find them do a Google search for the name of the archive or its locality. When you need the address of an archive or library, look in this section. <br /><br />Before visiting an archive, contact it and ask for information about its collection, hours, services, and fees. <br /><br />The Family History Library has microfilmed records from the National Archives of Canada and the provincial archives in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, and Ontario. It has vital records and probate records from British Columbia, homestead applications from Saskatchewan, land and property and probate records from Newfoundland, and probate records from Manitoba but few records from other Canadian archives. <br /><br />In Canada these archives have records for genealogical research:

The Canadian government collects records about Canadian history, culture, and people. Many such records are at the National Archives of Canada in Ottawa, formerly called the Public Archives of Canada. Their collection includes census, military records, immigration lists, land records, and some church records. A helpful overview of the collection is in: <br /><br />St-Louis-Harrison, Lorraine, and Mary Munk. T''racing Your Ancestors in Canada''.12th ed. Ottawa: National Archives of Canada, 1997. (FHL book 971 D27k 1997)


Many National Archive records are available on microfilm from the Family History Library or public or university libraries in the United States. These libraries may request interlibrary loans of up to three rolls of film at a time from:

The following guides list microfilms available by interlibrary loan to public libraries: <br /><br />Hillman, Thomas A. ''Catalogue of Census Returns on Microfilm, 1666–1891''. Ottawa: Public Archives of Canada, 1987. (FHL book 971 X23ht)<br /><br />''Ships’ Passenger Lists and Border Entry Lists in PAC, RG 76, Records of the Immigration Branch''. Ottawa: Federal Archives Division, Public Archives of Canada, 1986. (FHL book 971 W23p) <br /><br />Campeau, Marielle, and Patricia Birkett. ''Checklist of Parish Registers, 1986''. Ottawa: Manuscript Division, National Archives of Canada, 1987. (FHL book 971 K23p 1987)
===Provincial Archives===
 
Each province has its own archives that are separate from those of the national government. These repositories have many records valuable for genealogical research in their particular area.  
This next guide describes church records and a few vital records at the National Archives, including microforms and non-circulating manuscripts: <br /><br />Coderre, John E., and Paul A. Lavoie. ''Guide to Birth, Marriage and Death Records at the National Archives of Canada''. Ottawa: Ottawa Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society, 1987. (FHL book 971 K23c 1987) The 1977 edition is on microfilm at the Family History Library under the title ''Parish Registers Held at the Public Archives of Canada'' (FHL film 1036008)
 
=== National Library of Canada ===
 
The National Library is not the same as the National Archives, although it has the same street address. It has a helpful collection of published genealogies, manuscripts, histories, directories, maps, and newspapers. It also has periodicals from genealogical and historical societies across Canada. Write for information about their holdings and services:<br /><br />National Library of Canada <br />395 Wellington Street <br />Ottawa, ON K1A 0N4 <br />Canada <br />Telephone: 613-995-9481 <br />Fax: 613-943-1112<br />Web site: http://www.collectionscanada.ca/
 
A list of basic Canadian genealogical sources at the National Library of Canada is: <br /><br />Bond, Mary E. Reference Sources for Canadian Genealogy. Ottawa: National Library of Canada, 1995. (Not available at Family History Library.) <br />Some of the basic sources listed in this book are discussed in: <br /><br />Bond, Mary E. “Reference Sources for Canadian Genealogy at the National Library of Canada,” ''Anglo-Celtic Roots''. Winter 1996/1997, 1–3. (FHL book 971.384 D25a) This periodical is published by the British Isles Family History Society of Greater Ottawa.
 
=== Provincial Archives ===
 
Each province has its own archives that are separate from those of the national government. These repositories have many records valuable for genealogical research in their particular area. <br /><br />In eastern Canada, provincial archives have:


In eastern Canada, provincial archives have:
* Some birth, marriage, and death records

In western Canada, provincial archives have:

<br />You may contact each provincial archive for information about its services. The Provincial Archives of New Brunswick and the Archives of Ontario lend microfilms to public and university libraries in North America participating in the interlibrary loan service. The other archives do not, with a few exceptions for certain record types (such as newspapers). None of the archives have sufficient staff to research records for you, but they may be able to furnish names of researchers you can hire. For more information, see the research outline for each province.
