The Archives of Ontario announces data sets available to view and download through the Government of Ontario Data Catalogue: https://www.ontario.ca/search/data-catalogue.
Of most interest for genealogy are:
- Immigration Records (1865-1883): https://www.ontario.ca/data/immigration-records-1865-1883
This data set is an index to the four volumes of assisted immigration registers created by the Toronto Emigrant Office between 1865 and 1883. The registers are a chronological listing of those new immigrants who were assisted by the government to travel to different destinations across southern Ontario. Over 29,000 entries have been transcribed from the registers.
- Second Heir and Devisee Commission Case Files: https://www.ontario.ca/data/second-heir-and-devisee-commission-case-file
