What's New

    The first group in the index below contains items of general interest to the entire County (and occasionally the province of New Brunswick at large).
    The next sections are divided into Family groups, Vital Statistics group and the rest is separated into individual geographic areas - the Parishes, of which there are 15.
    Some of these Parishes have individual coordinators, who have websites set up off this main site. All data from the other Parish websites has now been "brought home" due to the lack of coordinators able to devote the time needed to maintain them.
    (All GenWeb positions are filled by volunteers, and life sometimes gets in the way of our desires to be of help to others. We thank those who have helped in the past, their efforts have been appreciated.)
