Thread: couple of searchable on line newspapers for Canada

Unfortunately I have found that trying to do genealogical searches in Alberta a nightmare. I've been asked to give exact dates for marriages & deaths to be given the register. We all know that alot of the time we don't have an exact date for an event that happened 100 or so years ago. I hope these links will help someone out, it sure helped me!

The Recents Alberta and British Columbia (B.C.) Obituary list this is "The Recents" Once you have found your relative of interest, you then can go to Our Past Our Future: The Alberta Heritage Digitization Project & click on Early Alberta Newspapers & use the information you obtained from "The Recents" to find your relative in the newspaper. Its a page by page search, so be prepared to spend some time searching.
