There are other legal records that are useful. A notarial record is a private agreement written by a notary in the form of a contract. Some of the most common ones are marriage contracts, wills, estate inventories, leases, and sales contracts. See [[Quebec Notarial Records]], [[Canada Court Records]], and [[Canada Notarial Records]]. Most legal records are notarial and are found in the individual notary’s ''greffe'', which, after 80 to 100 years, is usually in the appropriate regional branch of the Archives des notaires du Québec (ANQ). | |||
