Section i describes the principal archival sources and is arranged by country. Section ii is divided into two parts. Part a contains printed primary sources including documents published by the various colonial, provincial, and federal governments. Part b provides a listing of the contemporary newpapers most frequently cited by contributors to the volume. Section iii includes dictionaries, nominal lists, indexes, inventories, almanacs, and directories. Section IV contains secondary works of the 19th and 20th centuries, including a number of general histories and theses. Section v describes the principal journals and the publications of various societies consulted.

ARCHIVES DE LA COMPAGNIE DE JÉSUS, PROVINCE DU CANADA FRANÇAIS, Saint-Jérôme. Founded in 1844 by Father Félix Martin*, first rector of the Collège Sainte-Marie in Montreal, this archives was first known as the Archives du collège Sainte-Marie [see DCB,1, 686]. It was moved to Saint-Jérôme in 1968 and forms only a part of the ASJCF. In the year of its founding this archives received a valuable gift from the nuns of the Hôtel-Dieu in Quebec who had preserved a few of the papers of the old Collèges des Jésuites in Québec (1635–1800).

The collection includes thousands of photographs, miniature paintings, and 500 maps and plans (not yet numbered). The ASJCF holds

numerous original documents (256 dated prior to 1800) and certified copies relating to the history of the missions of the Society of Jesus in Acadia, New France, Canada, and the United States, from 1608 to about 1930 (when French speaking Jesuits turned over to English speaking Jesuits their missions to the Indians around the Great Lakes and in Ontario) and documents relating to the history of the Roman Catholic Church in Canada in the 19th century. Much of the material for the period before 1800 has been published. See DCB, I, 698, The Jesuit relations . . . .

The ASJCF has papers previously held by other archives; all organization completed by these repositories has been maintained. The collection includes, first, a Fonds général, numbered from 1 to 6,828 (54 ft), containing the former archives of the Collège Sainte-Marie, some dating from the 17th and 18th centuries; numerous documents on the political and religious conflicts of the 19th century in Quebec, including the Jesuits’ estates and the university issue; part of the Fonds Léon Gérin (4 ft); the Fonds Prud’homme (1 ft) and the Fonds Bernier (1 ft), relating to educational matters in western Canada; the correspondence of notary Cyrille Tessier, etcetera.

Series A and B concern the history of the Canadian Jesuits, 1841–1924. Series A comprises the archives of various mission residences and outposts, houses, and colleges including the chronicles of missions in the Great Lakes region, annual reports and correspondence of missionaries, such as the Lettres des nouvelles missions du Canada, 1843–1852, Lorenzo Cadieux, édit. (Montréal et Paris, 1973); documents relating to the colonizing venture at Nominingue, 1882–86. The Fonds Baraga is also in Series A. Series B includes documents concerning the residences and institutions outside Quebec, and material relating to the canonization of Canadian martyrs.

The Fonds Immaculée-Conception (5 ft) includes the correspondence between Abbé Louis-Édouard Bois* and Jean-Baptiste Meilleur*, the correspondence of Jules-Paul Tardivel*, etcetera. Series BO contains the papers left by the Jesuit fathers (90 boxes, not inventoried). The papers of Father Paul Desjardins are also included in this series. The ASJCF also holds other uninventoried papers of Jesuits who served in Canada, including the papers of Joseph-Papin Archambault*, those of the École sociale populaire, and a part of the academic and administrative records of the colleges of Edmonton, Saint-Boniface, Sainte-Marie, and Gaspé, which have recently been closed.

ARCHIVES DE L’ARCHIDIOCÈSE DE QUÉBEC. Contains some 1,200 ft of documents dating from 1638, about 5,000 photographs (1855 to the present), 400 maps and plans dating from the 18th century, an analytical card file for all pre-1930 documents, and a Répertoire général des registres officiels de l’archevêché in 6 vols., from 1659.

ARCHIVES HISTORIQUES OBLATES, Ottawa. An important repository for the history of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate from the time of their arrival in Canada in 1841. Even before 1930, Father Jean-Marie-Rodrigue Villeneuve* had begun to collect a large number of documents relating to the Oblates. In 1933, Father Léo Deschâtelets obtained copies from Rome of the writings of the order’s founder, minutes of general and executive meetings, and letters from the first Oblates in Canada.

The AHO holds many original papers pertaining to the Oblates as well as personal papers, including the manuscript of Father Louis-Marie Le Jeune*’s Dictionnaire and the notes of Father Louis Babel*’s trip to Labrador. There are also many manuscripts in Inuit and Indian languages, some written by Oblates (see Gaston Carrière, “Catalogue des manuscrits en langues indiennes [et esquimaudes] conservés aux Archives oblates, Ottawa,” Anthropologica (Ottawa), XII (1970), 151–79).

The AHO holds 500 ft of original documents and 75 ft of photographs, but its most valuable possession is its large number of copies (typescripts, photocopies, or microfilm) which enable the researcher to find almost all the documents relating to the Oblates in Canada. The microfilm section, set up in 1941, comprises more than 500,000 pages and a descriptive file of about 250,000 cards. There are several indexes and also a photograph collection and library of some 10,000 volumes. The library includes a few works printed in Indian languages and a large collection of Oblate publications, in particular Missions des O.M.I., which are to the Oblates what the Relations were to the Jesuits.

ARCHIVES NATIONALES DU QUÉBEC. At the conquest, articles 43, 44, and 45 of the capitulation of Montreal – contrary to the custom of international law at that time – permitted the administrators of New France to take the documents concerning the government of the colony back to France. Only records having a legal value for individuals were to remain in the country, and these suffered many misfortunes before the office of the Archives de la province de Québec – now the Archives nationales du Québec – was set up in 1920. (See Gilles Héon, “Bref historique des Archives du Québec,” ANQ Rapport, 1970, 13–25.) In 1971, the ANQ began establishing regional repositories in each of the administrative districts of Quebec. In addition to the repository at Quebec, there is now a fully organized one in Montreal, and another in the process of being set up in Trois-Rivières. These new archives hold pre-1875 records previously stored in the courthouses in each of the administrative districts (see Section I, Archives judiciaires). Notaries’ minute books, surveyors’ records, and the registers of births, marriages, and deaths for the parishes of all denominations will be placed in the new repositories of the ANQ as they are created. The judicial archives will also be kept here, and in the Montreal and Trois-Rivières repositories these include the documents of the French régime formerly held at ANQ-Q.

BIBLIOTHÈQUE NATIONALE DU QUÉBEC, DÉ-ARTEMENT DES MANUSCRITS, Montreal. In 1965, the Bibliothèque Saint-Sulpice (since 1967, the Bibliothèque nationale du Québec) owned enough archival material to create a separate manuscript department. No specific collection of papers occasioned its establishment; the Sulpicians began the collection of documents, and material is added every year. The repository at present holds 45,347 linear cm., consisting mainly of literary manuscripts of the late 19th and 20th centuries, but including also a number of private papers from the latter half of the 19th century and from the 20th century. The department also holds several hundred posters, more than 30,000 photographs, theatre programmes and other miscellaneous documents.

In 1970, the Société historique de Montréal deposited at the BNQ its complete collection of manuscripts, archives, documents and books (14,580 linear cm.), including the Collection La Fontaine. For a complete inventory of this collection see Inventaire de la collection Lafontaine, Elizabeth Nish [Gibbs], compil. (Publ. du Centre d’étude du Québec, Montréal, 1967).

BIBLIOTHÈQUES DE L’UNIVERSITÉ DE MONTREAL. In April 1971, the libraries of the Université de Montréal set up the Service des collections particulières to give researchers access to the numerous valuable documents acquired by the university through purchase and donation. At the same time the service initiated a series of publications.

The following collection was used:

Collection Baby. A large collection of original material, gathered by François-Louis-Georges Baby*, who bequeathed it to the Université de Montréal, it includes more than 20,000 items covering almost every subject of Canadian history from 1602 to 1905. In 1942, M. Camille Bertrand began to inventory this collection arranging the material in two large sections: Documents divers and Correspondance générale. Documents divers, mainly individual items, are catalogued under 20 general titles labelled A to S. The Correspondance générale, arranged alphabetically by the name of the signer of the letters, contains about 12,000 original letters kept in 120 boxes. The collection is too large and varied to be fully described here, but the researcher may consult the repository’s 20,000 manuscript index cards or the Catalogue de la collection François-Louis-Georges Baby, prepared by Camille Bertrand, with preface by Paul Baby and introduction by Lucien Campeau (2v., Montréal, 1971). Handwritten copies of most items in the Baby Collection are held by the PAC.

BROME COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY ARCHIVES, Knowlton, Que. This repository contains about 250 ft of original documents, covering the period dating from 1755. It holds the BCHS archives, the papers of individuals, families, and societies of various townships, and documents related to a number of New England states. There are also 1,000 photographs, 50 daguerreotypes, and a collection of local newspapers. Organized in 1897 and incorporated in 1898, the BCHS published Transactions from 1897 to 1938, and, in 1937, a Catalogue of documentswith a bibliography of materials on the Eastern Townships. For a further description of the BCHS Archives see Collections of the Brome County Historical Society, preliminary inventory ([Ottawa and Knowlton], 1954) compiled by the PAC and the society.

HAMILTON PUBLIC LIBRARY, Hamilton, Ont. The HPL, established in 1890, has always emphasized the collection of Canadian materials. In 1914, a separate Canadiana collection was organized and has grown steadily. It includes a large local history collection, and picture and

manuscript holdings have recently greatly expanded. Newspaper clippings, scrapbooks, pamphlets, and local periodicals have been indexed in detail.

Materials used in the preparation of volume IX include:

Ferrie papers

Hamilton biography

HUDSON’S BAY COMPANY ARCHIVES, Winnipeg. In 1974, the HBC archives was transferred from London to Winnipeg and deposited in the PAM [see DCB, X, 747]. Dating from 1670, the records measure about 5,000 linear ft, and consist of correspondence, journals, account books, ships’ logs, and maps. The archives as constituted at present was established in 1932, and the work of organization proceeded thereafter [see R. H. G. Leveson Gower, “The archives of the Hudson’s Bay Company,” Beaver, outfit 264 (December 1933), 40–42, 64; Joan Craig, “Three hundred years of records,” Beaver, outfit 301 (autumn 1970), 65–70; “HBC archives to come to Manitoba,” Beaver, outfit 304 (autumn 1973), 32–33]. In 1938, a publishing programme was undertaken by the Hudson’s Bay Record Society [see section II], and in 1949, the HBC and PAC arranged jointly to microfilm the archives from 1670 to 1870. Information on the PAC copies is found in PAC Report, 1950, 13–14; 1952, 16–18; 1953–54, 21–22;1955–58,44–46.

INVENTAIRE DES BIENS CULTURELS, Quebec. When Gérard Morisset* established the Service de l’Inventaire des œuvres d’art in 1940, he succeeded in gaining government recognition for a project of recording and locating works of art which he had conducted personally for more than ten years. Aided by a staff which he himself had trained, Morisset until 1967 photographed articles of silver, works of architecture, and paintings, searched parish account books, newspapers, and notarial registers, and accumulated many thousands of documents on artisans and their work. This impressive collection (about 70,000 photographs, 40,000 biographical cards, 20,000 slides, 5,000 old photographs) had already acquired a special value as the result of the disappearance of a number of the works of art. The Inventaire des œuvres d’art, now known as the Fonds Morisset, is open to all researchers upon application to the Ministère des Affaires culturelles.

The two principal sections of the Morisset col­

lection, the files concerning artists and craftsmen of Quebec (section 2), and those containing documents on architecture and works of art listed by area (section 5), contain useful material. There are also numerous files on architecture, works of art, and ethnography in Quebec in section 3. The slides have been individually described and classified to assist the researcher.

The material has all been systematically organized and there is a card index at the Centre de documentation, Service de l’Inventaire des biens culturels, 6 Rue de l’Université, Quebec.

McCORD MUSEUM, Montreal. A large portion of the McCord Museum archives consists of documents collected between 1860 and 1919 by David Ross McCord. The documents – about 160 linear ft – cover the period from 1682 to the present. In addition, the McCord Museum holds a photograph collection which includes the famous Notman Photographic Archives – about 400,000 prints and negatives – a most important source for research on 19th and 20th century Canada and Canadians. For further information about the archives, see John Andreassen, A preliminary guide to the manuscript collection, McGill University (Montreal, 1969), 9–19.

This repository, founded in 1965, holds 350 ft of Canadian documents dating from 1664 to the present, 4,654 photographs (1870–1945) and some 1,900 maps and plans. The collection includes documents relating to McGill University and a large selection of papers of scientists and explorers, scholars and authors, businessmen, other notable figures, various families, associations and institutions.

NEW BRUNSWICK MUSEUM, Saint John, N.B. Established in 1930, the N.B. Museum became a provincial institution in 1942. Parent organizations, such as the Natural History Society of New Brunswick, had been acquiring manuscripts for nearly a century; these materials were transferred to the museum’s Department of Canadian History in 1932 and formed the nucleus of the archives. For further information seeW. A. Squires, The history and development of the New Brunswick Museum (1842–1945) (N.B. Museum pub., Administrative series, 2, Saint John, N.B., 1945).

PROVINCIAL ARCHIVES OF BRITISH COLUMBIA,

Victoria. Established in 1893, this is the oldest archival institution in western Canada. Its manuscript collection is rich in material on the exploration of the Pacific northwest by land and sea and in material for the fur trade period. The official records for the colonial period (1849–71) are remarkably complete; records for the provincial period are also held. Substantial collections of private papers, some business records, and a large number of maps, including many of early cartographic interest, are held. There is an extensive collection of visual records – photographs, paintings, and lithographs. Integral to PABC’s holdings is an extensive and valuable collection of some 50,000 volumes of books and pamphlets as well as printed ephemera relating to the Pacific northwest. The archives holds almost complete files of newspapers for the colonial period and selected titles for later years.

The materials used most frequently were: Henry Maynard Ball, Journal, 18 Aug. 1864–22 Oct. 1865

British Columbia, Colonial secretary, Correspondence outward, May 1859–December 1870. 8 vols. Letterbook copies.

PROVINCIAL ARCHIVES OF MANITOBA, Winnipeg. In 1884, the librarian of the Legislative Li­

brary of Manitoba began to assemble documents relating to the Red River Settlement and to the Council of Assiniboia. The archives developed slowly as a special collection of the library until the end of the 1940s. In 1952 the government appointed an official archivist and a 1955 law made it an official repository, which became completely autonomous in 1970. In 1974, the archives of the Hudson’s Bay Company (q.v.) held in London was transferred to Winnipeg and deposited in the PAM. Both archival collections can be consulted in the new Manitoba Archives Building. In addition to manuscript and government records the PAM holds more than 65,000 classified photographs, a small number of paintings and drawings, and an outstanding collection of maps. In 1974, all private papers were completely reorganized. There is a central card index and unpublished preliminary and analytical inventories of the private papers, to facilitate research.

UNITED CHURCH ARCHIVES, Toronto. During the 19th century, archival collections were assembled by the various Canadian Methodist and Presbyterian bodies, usually in the libraries of their colleges. Materials were also gathered at the Methodist Publishing House, and some foreign mission correspondence was collected at the Presbyterian Foreign Mission Office.

The Central Archives collection is national in scope and contains the official records of the boards and departments of the various denominations now merged into the United Church of Canada; copies of denominational publications; monographs and pamphlets published by the various denominations (or relating to them); papers

of prominent ministers; some parish records; pictures of ministers, churches, home and foreign missions; tapes of oral history interviews; published parish histories and minutes of the various boards and administrative courts of the denominations concerned.

UNITED SOCIETY FOR THE PROPAGATION OF THE GOSPEL, London. Formed in 1965 the USPG is responsible for continuing work formerly carried on by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts (incorporated by royal charter, 1701) and the Universities’ Mission to Central Africa (founded 1857). The archives is in the process of reorganizing and reclassifying some material. Thus classifications used by Canadian archives holding USPG microfilm do not always

correspond to those of the archives itself. Indexes are available at USPG, however, and most dated references are easily transferred. For copies of USPG archives documents in the PAC see General inventory, manuscripts, 3: MG 17–MG 21 (Ottawa, 1974).

The following were consulted:

Journal of proceedings of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. Comprises bound and indexed volumes of the proceedings of the general meetings held in London from 1701, and four appendices, A, B, C, D (1701–1860).
