Title: Link: Online Searchable Databases
Post by: ~meg on Tuesday 17 May 05 18:32 BST (UK)

Hi all,
Thought I would take this opportunity to feature this Link (http://www.genealogy.gc.ca/06/06_e.html) to the Canadian Genealogy Centre’s online databases.  These databases cover various aspects of the population of Canada and hosts other databases created by their partners. Each database includes a comprehensive online help page, which contains helpful information about the records, the database and how to consult the actual records.

The Canadian Genealogy Centre provides a wealth of information for researching in Canada.  It is a great resource and one that we should support.

Happy trails!

Don't know if its just my computer, but I can't seem to get into the Canadian Genealogy Centre's site, either through this link or by typing in the address, or from searches.  Has the web address changed?

Corinne,
The address remains the same.  I've just double-checked the link on this thread, as well as the one given on the main Board. 

It's one of those computer gremlins at work, I suspect, and all will be well when you try again.  If not, come back and we'll try Step 2.
