Summary:
The documents generated by early elections and party affiliation in our province can be helpful to genealogists.
Description:
There is a wealth of documents that were generated by political activities in early Ontario. Our ancestors could have left behind mentions in poll or voting lists, as an objector to electoral results, as a participant or witness to violence and/or crime occasioned by party affiliation, or simply as a member of a political party or movement. This presentation will outline the various documents that can be accessed, where to find them, and what to expect from them.
