GLOUCESTER COUNTY GENEALOGICAL GUIDE: 2019

GLOUCESTER COUNTY GENEALOGICAL GUIDE

Introduction to the Archives The Provincial Archives of New Brunswick (PANB) was established in 1967 to provide for the care, custody and control of the documentary heritage of the Province. The collection encompasses government records and private collections including textual records, photographs, maps, architectural plans, audio-visual material, digital files, microfilms, and published volumes.

This guide is designed as a starting point for those who wish to use PANB resources, either in person or by distance, for family history research. We strongly encourage researchers to come to the Archives to conduct their search in person. Visitors to PANB can access additional finding aids and indexes in our reference room, many of which are not noted in this guide, including genealogical research collections that can only be accessed on site.

Research, Interlibrary Loan & Copy Services If unable to come to the Archives, researchers may submit a written or telephone request for specific documents and the staff at PANB will conduct a brief search. Precise questions have the best chance of being answered fully. The volume of inquiries and the intricacies of family history research preclude extensive research or photocopying by staff.

Many of the records of particular value to the family historian have been microfilmed and are available through an interlibrary loan program. Your local library can order up to three films at a time.

It should be emphasized that many government documents as well as most of our over 4000 private manuscript collections have not been microfilmed or digitized and must be used at PANB. For a fee, Archives staff may make copies of records. For a list of our reproduction fees, contact us via telephone (506-453-2122) or e-mail ([email protected]).

Development of Gloucester County When New Brunswick was established in 1784 it was divided into eight counties. As the population grew the original counties were divided and new counties set up. The final complement is 15. These counties are subdivided into civil parishes.

Gloucester County was set off from Northumberland County in 1826. It is located in the northeastern corner of New Brunswick and is bounded on the north by the , on the east by the Gulf of St. Lawrence, on the west by Restigouche County and on the south by Northumberland County. Civil parishes were established as follows:

1. Guide to Family Histories and the Provincial Archives (available online) The Guide to Family Histories at the Provincial Archives was created to enhance access to family histories found in a multitude of sources at PANB. Items referenced vary in volume from a few lines in a book to entire genealogical collections.

The index can be found online at: http://archives.gnb.ca/ResearchTools/GuideToFamilyHistories

2. Census Returns (available online) Parts of the 1851 and 1861 census are incomplete. Those for 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901 are more comprehensive. The records contain the names, ages, relationships, occupations, and religion of New Brunswick residents.They may also include ethnicity, nationality, entry date into the colony (1851) and other data.

Many census records have been digitized and searchable databases are available through the Library and Archives (LAC) website: www.bac-lac.gc.ca. The 1911 and 1921 census records have also been released and are available and searchable on various websites in addition to LAC. PANB does not hold microfilm copies of these records.

Census records on microfilm cannot be borrowed from PANB; however, the Associates of the Provincial Archives have various transcripts of records available for purchase.

Please visit www.archives.gnb.ca/Associates for a complete list of publications for sale or call (506) 453-2122.

3. Vital Statistics Although some pre-1888 records of births and deaths exist, they were not required to be kept by law until 1888. Prior to 1888, each County Council kept records of marriages. Please note that pre-1920 vital statistics are not comprehensive because even though it was law to keep records, recordkeeping was not enforced until that time. Post 1930 the province added a process of late birth registration. These are births that were not recorded contemporary to the birth but later using witness verification. They are recorded for the year in which the birth occurred.

In New Brunswick, official records of birth are restricted for 95 years and official records of marriages and deaths are restricted for 50 years. The Archives updates the vital statistics database on the website as soon as possible after new records are released.

3. Vital Statistics, continued If you require records which are still restricted, please contact Vital Statistics by visiting www.snb.ca or phoning (506) 453-2385, 1-888-762-8600 (within North America) or 1 (506) 684-7901 (outside North America).

The Associates of the Provincial Archives have various transcripts of vital statistics available for purchase but these are mainly pre-1888 marriage indices. Please visit www.archives.gnb.ca/Associates or call (506) 453-2122 for a complete list of publications for sale.

New Brunswick Vital Statistics Records (RS141) (available online) Search the database of many of our vital statistics indices free of charge at www.archives.gnb.ca.

Note: Not available online is RS141A6: List of Birth Certificates, 1882-1887. This listing is typed and arranged alphabetically by year, and provides the name of child, date of birth, name of the father and the maiden name of mother. These can be found on microfilm F18796.

Early County Marriage Records (RS149) (available online) Marriage Registers contain information from marriage certificates filed with the registrar. They list the names of the bride and groom, their respective residences, and the names of officiating clergy and witnesses. Entries do not give the parents’ names. The Gloucester County Council marriage registers cover the years 1826-1887. Note: Pre-1826 marriages are recorded in the Northumberland County marriage records.

Marriage Bonds (RS551A) (available online) Marriage Bonds, known administratively as Performance Bonds, were required when banns were not read or the clergyman did not know both parties. They include the names of the bride and groom and the name of the groom's bondsman. Rarely are the names of parents given. This series of documents cover the entire province for the period 1810 to 1932, but is not complete. County marriage registers should be consulted first and then consult the marriage bonds.

3. Vital Statistics, continued

Index to Death Registration of Soldiers, 1941-1947 (available online) Although it is not the responsibility of Vital Statistics in New Brunswick to register births, marriages, or deaths which occur outside of the province, these "Certificates of Registration of Death" were placed on file to record the deaths of New Brunswick-born World War II soldiers.

This index is not all-inclusive, but includes a handful of non-Brunswickers (Americans and soldiers from other provinces). The certificates include date of birth, father's name and birthplace, mother's maiden name and birthplace, and cause of death.

The microfilm (F20079) includes both the Index compiled by PANB and the certificates in alphabetical order by year.

New Brunswick Cemeteries (available online) This database is the result of a project put together by volunteer members of the New Brunswick Genealogical Society. The goal was to create a searchable database and provide online access. PANB was a partner in the project.

The information provided in this database was transcribed from existing gravestones. Transcriptions may exist for grave markers which no longer stand. Keep in mind that the data presented is a transcription – no extrapolations, conjectures or guesses have been made regarding relationships between names on the stones unless the relationship was stated. There are other cemetery transcriptions available at the Archives that are not part of this database.

Please visit www.archives.gnb.ca to search the online database.

4. Land Records

Land Petitions (RS108) (index available online) These are requests submitted to government by those seeking land grants. The records cover the years from 1783 to 1918 and sometimes provide the name, age, origin, marital status, number of children, location and amount of land requested by the petitioner and at times additional biographical data. The likelihood of finding petitions with such detailed personal information tends to be higher for records pre-dating 1840. An index of some 67,000 names can be searched on our website (www.archives.gnb.ca) or can be viewed on

6 GLOUCESTER COUNTY GENEALOGICAL GUIDE

4. Land Records, continued microfilm F13763. Please note that at times people petitioned as a group. In such cases the land petition is filed under the name of the first petitioner but the online index includes all names.

Land Petitions: Current Series (RS272) These petitions cover the years from 1832 to 1987. The series is "Current" in that the Department of Natural Resources and Energy continues to add to it. The documents contain very little biographical data. The index is available on microfilm (F16741) and can be borrowed through inter library loan.

Land Grants (RS686) (index available online) The land grant books form the official land records kept by the New Brunswick government. Beginning in 1784, those who had been granted land under the government between 1765 and 1784 were required to re-register their grants in New Brunswick. These documents describe the metes and bounds (boundaries) of granted lands. The name of the grantee is provided but no other biographical information is given.

Registry Office Records (RS87) Gloucester County Registry Office Records cover the years 1831-1980 and include copies of deeds, leases, mortgages, liens and other land transactions. A number of wills (those which transfer title of land) are also found in this series. There is a multi-reel grantor-grantee index. Microfilm numbers can be requested from PANB.

5. Immigration Records

Passenger Lists (RS23) (available online) A small number of passenger lists for immigrant ships coming to the province in 1816, 1833, 1834, 1837 and 1838 have survived. The records are available on microfilms F9798 and F9799. The index of passengers and crews (F17834) contains about 10,000 names. The ship crews are included because some immigrants worked their passage. Each entry gives a passenger's surname and given name, passenger number, name of the ship and an archival reference number.

5. Immigration Records, continued Note: Passengers to New Brunswick: The Customs House Records; 1833, 1834, 1837, 1838, Johnson, Daniel F., 1887 (MC80/1263) is available for reference at the Provincial Archives.

6. Court Records

Probate Court Records (RS64) Probate is the legal validating of a will or settling of an estate if no will exists. It empowers the executor to act on behalf of the deceased to disburse the assets of the estate. Probate courts were aligned with the 15 counties until legislation passed in 1983 and made effective in 1984 divided the province into nine judicial districts, each having a probate court. Pre-1826 probate records for Gloucester County can be found in the Northumberland County records.

Probate Court Files These will include some of the following documents: wills, petitions, affidavits letters testamentary, letters of administration, inventories, bonds, renunciations, correspondence and other items. Researchers should first consult the indexes to the probate files and the probate books and then order from the films listed below. Probate Court files for 1827 to 1931 are on microfilm. Post-1931 files are available only at the Archives.

Probate Court Books Probate Court Books contain transcripts of the basic legal documents found in the files but there have been instances of something being in the books and not in the files. Pre-1942 books are available on microfilm, and the remainder up to 1980 is available at the Archives.

6. Court Records, continued Court of Equity Records: Original Jurisdiction (RS55) These records cover the years 1785 to 1912 and deal with a variety of legal matters including the settling of estates and the guardianship of infants. Neither case files nor an index is available on microfilm therefore these records must be used on site at PANB.

7. Education Records

Teachers' Petitions and Licenses (RS655) This series covers the whole province and contains requests by teachers for licenses from 1812 to 1882. Documents give data such as name, birthplace, education, teaching experience, church affiliation, and samples of handwriting. Also attached may be certificates and letters from local school trustees and clergymen testifying to the teaching ability of the petitioner and his or her moral and religious character. The documents are arranged chronologically and then alphabetically by the name of the petitioner. The index should be consulted first. Petitions of those identifying as “Irish” are available on the Irish Portal website: http://archives.gnb.ca/Irish/databases_en.html.
