Marriages in York (Toronto)
Marriage Registers of St. James Anglican Church/Cathedral,
York (Toronto), 1800 to 1896, as recorded in Landmarks of Toronto : a
collection of historical sketches of the old town of York from 1792 until 1837 and of
Toronto from 1834 to [1914] ; volume 3, pp.395 ff., by John Ross Robertson 1894(including
biographical notations on some individuals and families by J.R.R.) Source: Internet Archives Public Domain
Nearly all the marriage registers of St. James', from 1824
to 1831, were
destroyed in the fire which occurred January 5, 1839. Only
some half
dozen remain, and their preservation is owing to the fact
that they were
entered separately on loose sheets of paper and were folded
between the
leaves of books which were preserved.
