PRDH on Disc

We have purchased the recently released PRDH database of early Quebec records on CD ROM. This disc has the complete database compiled by the Programme de Recherches en Démographic Historique of the University of Montreal. The database contains the following types of records: Recantation, Baptism, Confirmation, Hospital sick list, List of migrants, Marriage, Marriage Contract, Census, Burial, Testimony of freedom to marry, Naturalization, Marriage rehabilitation, and Marriage annulment. The time period for the information is from 1608 to 1799, with all the information that is in the red PRDH volumes (1608-1765) plus information to 1799.

The database is searchable by Individual, Couples (Husband first), Couples (Wife first), Date of Record, Parish, Number of Record, Occupation or Origin. The time period, parish, type of record, or role of the participant can be left open or selected as search parameters in order to reduce the amount of information returned. The roles include Subject, Spouse of the Subject, Father of the Subject, Mother of Subject, or Other.

To speed-up the searches we have purchased a new PC and loaded the program and database onto the hard drive. Due to heavy use there may be a sign-up sheet to ensure everyone has a chance to use the database. If you are a VT-FCGS member that cannot access the library write to us including a self addressed stamped envelope and we will conduct up to 4 look-ups at a time for you.
