The Early Families Project of North Bay, Ontario

In 2006-07 five students from the Community History class at Nipissing University in North Bay taught by Françoise Noël worked with genealogists Barb Moore and Helen Vaillancourt from the Nipissing Branch of the Ontario Genealogy Society and learned the skills associated with genealogical research while exploring the history of some of North Bay 's early families. The initial research done by the students has been checked by Barb Moore and the edited projects are presented here for anyone interested. The project has also been described in the August 2007 issue of Families . For a copy of the project, click on the links below. If you are interested in building on one of these genealogies, check with the OGS-NB for the notes and documents produced.
