The Canadiana website has a vast amount of material for the family historian, but not many use it or even know about it. Canadiana’s rich genealogy and local history collection includes local and family histories telling of pioneering, settlement, and local government in early Canada. This talk is your guide to mining the 40 million pages of primary-source documents.
