FREE ONLINE PRESENTATION

Leeds & Grenville Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society

Join us on Monday, April 7th at 7:00 pm via Zoom for a presentation by Annette Burke Lyttle. Her topic is “Border—What Border? Our Ancestors Who Called Both Canada and the USA Home”.

Movement from the United States to Canada was unrestricted and unrecorded until April 1908. The U.S. began recording the entry of Canadians along its northern border in 1894. Before that, many thousands of people lived cross-border lives, without visas, work permits, passports, or immigration records. Learn how to find these elusive ancestors.
