hi crougar
have just read your message about birth certs for the children of parents that were not married.{oct 2007} my parents were not married when i was born but both names are on my cert. is there a record of the written consent and the declairation kept any where.
thankyou maureen

Silver Surfer
I am almost sure they would be kept with the original birth entries
You should approach the GRO Office and they will advise you


BIRTH

For the father to be named on the birth certificated when the couple are not married either
1 He is present at the registration
2 he provides a written consent for his name to be included
3 The mother makes a 'declaration'

Canadian Census

http://automatedgenealogy.com/index.html


Unfortunately its search function is a whole lot more annoying than Ancestry's, although its transcriptions are more accurate.

One thing I like to mention about it -- there is a linking project.

For people in the 1901 or 1911 census who were Home Children or who were in the Canadian Expeditionary Forces or who died in WWI or WWII, you can request that a link be set up in the census record to the Cdn govt pages for those records.

It's a bit of a nice memorial, and can help others find the info.

Commonwealth War Graves Commission

Google:

www.cwgc.org/debt_of_honour.asp - 39k -

Just seen this thread as a result of the 'nudge' but not yet read all 7 pages!
A recent comment about FreeBMD omitted that their 'View Images' is free, as far as it goes (currently 1935 for births)

Just go to your original first message press "EDIT" and change the title

Ancestry.ca and FamilySearch Announce Agreement to Digitize and Index Existing Canadian Censuses
11 November 2008


Joint initiative provides online access to a comprehensive collection of Canadian censuses
TORONTO, ON—Ancestry.ca, Canada's leading online family history website, is pleased to announce a joint initiative with FamilySearch International, a nonprofit organization that maintains one of the world's largest repositories of genealogical resources. The joint initiative will allow the organizations to improve online access to a comprehensive collection of Canadian censuses.

As part of the agreement, FamilySearch will digitize and index Canadian census records that Ancestry.ca has acquired. These digitized and indexed records will then be made available to Ancestry.ca members on the company's website, and in time the indexes will also be available to the public at FamilySearch.org. The images will be free to qualified FamilySearch members and all FamilySearch family history centers.

FamilySearch will deliver images and indexes to Ancestry.ca for censuses from 1861, 1871, 1881 and 1916 Censuses to launch online in 2009. In return, Ancestry.ca will provide images and indexes to FamilySearch for the 1851, 1891, 1901 and 1906 Censuses.

Karen Peterson, Marketing Director, Ancestry.ca, comments: "Teaming with FamilySearch will enable Ancestry.ca to significantly reduce the time and costs involved in delivering these important historical records online for our members. Also, it will free up resources for Ancestry.ca to invest in other historical records our members want made available online."

Paul Nauta, Public Affairs Manager for FamilySearch, comments: "FamilySearch is committed to providing economical access to more historical records quicker. The Canadian Census project with Ancestry.ca is in alignment with that directive for Canadian records and will be well received by anyone with Canadian ancestry."
