Research Services

Toronto Branch offers the following Research Services:

1. ELECTRONIC SEARCH SERVICES
Toronto Branch has designed an electronic search that provides a complete printout of all details in every record where the request is found in all transcribed records of historic York County.

Electronic Search includes:

  • places of worship registers
  • ministers' personal registers
  • transcribed cemetery markers
  • funeral home burial records
  • sextons' burial permits
  • windows, plaques, memorials
  • strays 'from' historic York County
  • and others

See Electronic Search Services

2. CEMETERY INDEX SEARCH
This 25,900+ name index includes names in all published cemetery transcriptions (as well as many that are unpublished) for the City of Toronto and York Region (or what was historic York County). A search of our cemetery index will provide researchers with all occurrences of each surname searched. We will also indicate whether or not the material is published. Publication cost and order forms will be included. We also indicate the known archival location.

See Cemetery Index Search

3. ENQUIRIES/LOOKUPS
Toronto Branch will undertake genealogy research look-ups, which could include a search of Ontario Archive indexes; birth, marriage and death records; newspaper notices; census; church records; Toronto directories; cemetery transcriptions and burial records. Toronto Branch may also have suggestions for an enquirer as to the approach to take in doing their genealogy research. Enquiry requests are dealt with by volunteers.
