Roman Catholic parish registers are the most accurate and helpful of all the French Canadian genealogical sources. These registers contain baptism, marriage, and burial records from 1621 to the present. Between 1679 and 1993, all parishes in Québec were required to send duplicate copies to the civil archives. This duplication has ensured that a vast majority of vital records from Quebec survive to the present day. | Roman Catholic parish registers are the most accurate and helpful of all the French Canadian genealogical sources.
