Federal Voters Lists in Ontario • 1935-1979

They record the names and addresses of adult Canadians at precise periods – a few weeks before federal general elections and byelections. This finding aid is the first published guide to federal lists in Ontario – a collection of almost 300 rolls of microfilm available through the National Archives of Canada. It lists the federal electoral districts for each election, and provides the numbers of the microfilm reels and the page numbers for those districts. Federal Voters Lists in Ontario 1935-1979 will open a vast new resource for geneal- ogists. It makes it possible to trace people through more than four decades in the mid- dle of the 20th century.
