J.J. Can you please tell Pat where to find the Homesteader's Index, so she can check out her father.

I forget the URL

Cheers,

Rob.

Hello all, Thank you -- I already had obtained complete copies of my Father's homestead records from the Canadian government several years ago but the year he first homesteaded didn't quite match up with any passenger records I checked.....It appears that he waited about 4 years or so to actually do the homestead thing in Ashern, Manitoba. That's why I couldn't find him on the passenger lists -- I just hadn't gone back far enough!!! Again, my thanks to all you wonderful Rootschatters.  ;D Pat

I believe LAC (Library and Archives Canada) is working with Ancestry and someone else (might be McGill  :-\ )to have them indexed.

Canadian passenger lists 1865-1935 to be digitized and indexed...

Initially, Ancestry.ca and LAC will focus on indexing the Quebec City passenger lists from 1870 - 1900, which comprise more than 750,000 names. The digital images of these and other passenger lists are already available on the LAC web site. The index for Quebec City will be available free of charge on www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/genealogy as well as on Ancestry.ca. LAC and Ancestry.ca will continue to work together to ensure that eventually the entire Canadian passenger list collection from 1865 to 1935, which includes ports in Halifax, St. John, Vancouver, Victoria and North Sydney, is digitized and indexed.
