Upper Canada Newspaper Notices

Upper Canada newspapers contain a wealth of information on the lives of early settlers. Many of the notices I have indexed here are being published for the first time. These records may also include the ONLY record of your ancestor in Upper Canada, once in a lifetime records of an individual who has been convicted of a crime and banished, or an ancestor who has left a single newspaper 'footprint' of their time in Upper Canada before heading across the border to the United States, or perhaps an ancestor whose only 'claim to fame' was finding a strayed cow or horse.
