BIOGRAPHIES AND FAMILY HISTORIES:

There have been many Biographies and Family Histories written about New Brunswick individuals and families. A invation is extended to you to write a brief (or not so brief) article on your ancestor(s) who resided in the parishes of Kings County, NB. I will post them for you on this site.

Possible items to include:

  • a brief vital statistic report on your ancestor(s)
  • time frame they resided in this County
  • contact information to you
  • possibly a brief note on what your research aim is for this/these individuals
  • any historical notes that will help fix a time frame for these people
  • any other items you wish to include
The advantage of adding your family to this listing is that it will serve as a permanent reminder to anyone reading this page, that there is a researcher out there interested in this person or family, and might just spark a contact with others who are working on similar families.

If you have a web site that deals with a family line from this area of NB, please let me know and I will add a link to it. 

The Provincial Archives of New Brunswick has lists that cover the following.

  • Guide to Biographies 
  • Guide to Family Histories
