| RENFREW COUNTY Records begin 1885 |
| LANARK COUNTY Records begin 1871 |
| PRESCOTT & RUSSELL COUNTIES Records begin 1873 |
| Vital Statistics Death Records, held by the Archives of Ontario in Toronto, begin at 1869. A reference to records not beginning until a later date in certain counties in this section refers to other printed records collected across the Province, not the index. The purpose of beginning with early death records is to reveal the history of the earliest settlers to the Province. By comparing the earliest births and marriages in this series, along with these death records, one is able to build the presence of Gillespie families across the country. |
