BMDs in Montreal .....
Hello....I hope someone can point me in the right direction!!! I'm wondering how I can access certs in Montreal and would like to know the available dates. I'm interested in the period between 1930 and 1985. Is there an online site? Would anyone in Montreal be willing to do some look ups, please? Fingers are crossed!!!!!!! Tass

Hi Tass:
You can try the Toronto Virtual Reference Library at:
[color=blue][u]http://www.virtualrefere ... u][/color]
Enter Quebec genealogy in the search bar, and you will be given a list of addresses with explanations of what you can expect from each.
At the following specific National Archives site:
[color=blue][u]http://www.collectionsca ... u][/color]
From the side bar choose Provincial and Territorial Archives. There is also a choice for a list of Genealogical Societies in the side bar.
The following link will take you directly to the ENGLISH page of the Québec Archives where you can access Genealogy information.

Hope this helps,

Hi Tass,
Hopefully someone in Montreal will post with a more helpful answer than mine, but in the meantime this is what
www.collectionscanada.ca/genealogy
has to say about Quebec BMD
Hope it is helpful

In Quebec, the civil registers of births (baptisms), marriages and deaths (burials), which date from 1621, were duplicate copies of the church registers. All of the pre-1900 records can be consulted at each of the nine regional offices of the Archives nationales du Québec.
Those registers were microfilmed by the Family History Library™ and are available through that institution.
Records dating from 1900 are in the custody of the under-noted office:
Ministère de la Justice
Directeur de l'état civil [www.etatcivil.gouv.qc.ca/English/index.htm]
2535, boulevard Laurier
Sainte-Foy, QC
G1V 5C5
A general index for marriages and deaths that occurred in the province of Quebec between 1926 and 1994 was prepared by the Société de généalogie de Québec. It is available on CD-ROM and can be consulted in many genealogical societies and libraries.
