Sources in Quebec can be divided into three categories:
1608-1763: French Regime. Certain books include Detroit and other French forts that are outside the present borders of Quebec.
1763-1901: British Regime. Vital statistics are preserved at the Archives Nationales du Québec.
1900-today: This period covers the vital statistics that are not archived.

Archives

Service des archives et de gestion des documents - Université du Québec à Montréal
Les archives régionales - Université du Québec à Rimouski
Note: Most original records for the Province of Quebec before 1900 are at the nine branches of the Archives Nationales du Quebec. Although microfilm copies of some records are held by all branches, there is no one central repository. Each specializes in a region, and regional boundaries do not match county boundaries exactly.

Divorce Records in Canada

Divorce Records

Canada Parliamentary Marriage and Divorces, 1867-1919
From 1867 to 1919, civil divorces in Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba were granted by private acts of the Parliament of Canada. This database includes the names of the spouses, places of residence at the time of the marriage and divorce, other marriages (if noted), and dates of marriage and divorce (the date when the act became law) for divorce acts from this period. The original records may include additional information such as other places of residence, occupations, additional court action taken, and number of children (and occasionally their names or genders), if any. The very restrictive grounds for the cost of a divorce made them quite rare; the records are, however, worth obtaining when they apply.
