Ontario Court Records
Court Records
After 70 years, civil and criminal records are sent to the Archives of Ontario. Court records in Ontario date from 1789. Many records are avialable on microfilm at the Archives. A court of Probate for all of upper Canada was established in 1793 and surrogate courts for the four existing districts were also created. In 1858 the Probate court and District Surrogate court were abolished. County Surrogate Courts were established in their place.

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.
