Ontario Genealogy Resources



My 2x great grandfather came from Ireland to Canada about 1833 and lived in Kingston, Ontario.  I still search for information about when he actually arrived here, why he came, and what the family got up to in Kingston.

During the course of my research I have come across many publications for Ontario that don't always help me in my search, but may help others.





The pdf will also be under the Resources tab above.

  1. I am exploring the names of Henderso and Taylor. I know my Hendersons were in Canada in1833. Not sure when they came to Candad. Shortly after they crossed the border into New York State. I have their info from there. The Taylor info in undeveloped as yet. Anne Snell
