Researching Your 20th Century Canadian Ancestors
Did your parents, grandparents or great-grandparents live most of their lives in 20th century Canada? Finding information after 1939 can be tricky but there are resources available if you know where to look. Discover how you can add the missing details to the lives of your 20th century ancestors and relatives.
Maximizing the Library and Archives Canada Website
Library and Archives Canada website is an excellent resource for genealogists but it can be confusing to find what you’re looking for. Learn how to get the maximum benefit of the free online databases, discover strategies to get results and explore new collections.
Locating Your Forgotten Children – British Home Children in Canada
For seventy years (1869-1939) over 100,000 destitute children were sent from British streets and orphanages to Canada to become domestic help and farm hands. With over fifty sending agencies, these children were primarily placed in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Québec, Ontario, Manitoba, among other locations. One in ten Canadian’s are now descendants of Home Children. This program is an unknown piece of relatively recent history in Canada. We will learn about the program itself, and how to go about locating records and identifying if an ancestor was British Home Child sent to Canada.
These webinars join four excellent Canadian webinars already in the library:
- Ten Reasons Your Ancestors Was in Canada
- Canadian Ports of Entry: Ship Passenger Lists, Immigration Records, and Border Crossing Records
- Making the Most of Canadian Census Records
