OGS Ottawa Branch March Meeting

This Saturday, 24 March at 1:30 pm Fraser Dunford will be in Ottawa speaking to OGS Ottawa Branch on Municipal Records.

Ontario’s municipal history is complex.  Finding municipal records is even more complex, yet they contain significant genealogical and historical information. 

Fraser Dunford is a retired professional engineer and university administrator, and former OGS Executive Director. He is author of several books and articles before and in life as a genealogist including Municipal Records in Ontario, covering the history and growth of Ontario municipalities, the sorts of records municipalities kept, and where you may find these records.

In the morning Back to Basics session, starting at 10:30 am, Heather Oakley will discuss Citing Your Sources.

The Computer special interest group is scheduled to meet following the main event in the afternoon, nominally at 3 pm.

All events are at the Ottawa City Archives, 100 Tallwood in Nepean.
