Show detail Hide detail

The series (Book 1) consists of records of birth, marriage and death, 1751-1895, alphabetically arranged and transcribed by Douglas E. Eagles from two similar but not identical Horton Township Books, 1761-1870, one in the possession of the Public Archives of Nova Scotia and the other in the possession of Mr. Graham Harvey of Grand Pré, Nova Scotia.

It also includes entries from the transcript of the Horton Township Book, 1761-1895, in the National Archives of Canada (MG 9, B 9-7, which is also available on microfilm reel C-3027). In addition to these, some of the entries were from miscellaneous sources: notices of marriage and death gleaned by Ross Graves of Upper Stewiacke, Nova Scotia, from the "Haligonian" and the "Nova Scotian", as well as information from various family Bibles contributed by John Duncanson of Sarnia, Ontario. An index to the surnames found in the main alphabetical listing as well as in the bodies of the entries is also supplied.
