About this webinar

Did you know FamilySearch has a wealth of Quebec records that are not widely-known? These records have no search index so you would not be able to access them using the Search Records functionality and entering an ancestor’s name. FamilySearch has images of non-indexed Quebec non-Catholic parish registers from 1763 to 1967; images of Quebec non-indexed Catholic and non-Catholic church records from 1642 to 1902; images of Quebec guardianships from 1639 to 1930; images of Quebec notarial records from 1800 to 1920; plus many more hidden Quebec records. This session will show you step-by-step how to access these Quebec records on FamilySearch.

    Outstanding!! Definitely worth the yearly price of my subscription to Family Tree Webinars. I guess you can tell I have Quebec ancestors.

    I will definitively be using the information given today, I’ve not had the courage to search those sections of Family Search, I’m so glad to now know how to use them. Thank you

    Johanne Gervais gave a very clear and thorough step-by-step presentation on the types of hidden records we can find, why as genealogists we want to find them, and how to find them. This is one to take lots of notes, probably watch several times, and then practice the techniques. I strongly recommend this webinar for anyone researching their French-Canadian ancestors and other Canadian ancestors as well. She gave me SO MANY new ideas to dig into!

    My great-grandparents are from Canada, but that is about all I know. Hopefully I will be able to use some of these search techniques to learn more about them. Thanks!

    This gives me hope! I KNOW there are more Quebec records for my family…I just haven’t figured out how to access them yet. Thanks, Johanne
