Ontario Locator
Ontario Locator is meant for the use of genealogists and historians (though we do understand other professions and hobbyists find the information useful). Our purpose is to help genealogists and historians discover the township, county or district they need in order to research family histories. Knowing this information will narrow your search down to one area instead of province-wide.
ARCHEION

Welcome to the Canadian Genealogy Centre
Can Genealogy has won praise from Everton's Genealogical Helper. In its November/December issue, William Dollarhide declared that Can Genealogy "should be the first stop for researchers looking for their Canadian ancestors online." Dollarhide is a noted genealogical author, and we certainly appreciate his kind words.

Welcome to the International
Society for British Genealogy and Family History
The ISBGFH
exists for anyone who is researching British ancestry, be
they ancestors who left Ireland for America at the time of
the potato famine, ones who were sent with the first fleet
to Australia, persons who fled to Canada to escape poor
prospects in Scotland, a Welshman traveling to Patagonia or
an Englishman settling in the plantations of the West
Indies.
Because you have British ancestry, one or more of your
ancestors chose to emigrate overseas and either stayed
there, moved on to another country or returned home. This
means you the opportunity to search for information in a
country other than your own. When you begin research away
from your home ground, you will find that although records
are similar, other differences will challenge you.
In order to cope with the unfamiliar, the ISBGFH
organization exists to help unravel the mysteries of
research overseas, and to share research available on a
worldwide basis. This applies equally to anyone whose
ancestors came from the British Isles and settled
anywhere in the world, as it does to family historians
living in Britain today who have ancestors who went
abroad.

f you enjoy WWII history on the home front and the secret pleasure of reading someone's private letters, then I'm sure you will enjoy reading my books. My first book, Letters from Lavender Cottage, was first published in November 2002 and has been immensely successful. My second book, Letters to Hannah, published 14th October 2003, looks at WWII on the Home Front through the eyes of those who lived in Hastings and South East England, from September 1939 to December 1945
