Canadian Genealogy for Americans
Posted by Diane
Has your genealogy research led you to ancestors in Canada? That's not
surprising—folks have been crossing the US-Canadian border for a
loooong time. Consider:
-
After the American Revolution, around 35,000 Loyalists headed for Canada's Maritime Provinces.
- By 1812, about 80 percent of the estimated 100,000
settlers in southern Ontario province were of American origin.
- Approximately 900,000 French-Canadians emigrated to the United
States from 1840 to 1930.
-
As available US land diminished in the late 1880s, Canada's
Prairie Provinces saw a massive influx of Americans.
- Around 1895, when US border-crossing records begin, as many as
40 percent of immigrants to Canada planned to end up in the
United States.
- In 1897, the Klondike Gold Rush spurred a stampede of Americans
to the Yukon.
Fortunately for US residents tracing Canadian ancestors, an
abundance of resources is available—but where do you
start?
