Join us for a virtual presentation exploring the rich family history resources available through the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21. While best known for Halifax, the museum’s mandate encompasses immigration to Canada across all time periods and ports of entry, offering valuable insights well beyond a single location.

With a particular strength in documenting immigrants who arrived between 1928 and 1971, this session will highlight key genealogical resources, including ship passenger lists and manifests, along with the museum’s extensive collections of oral histories, photographs, and personal documents donated by immigrants and their descendants—bringing Canada’s immigration stories to life.

This meeting will also include the Wellington County Branch Annual General Meeting
