Books, Maps & Other Resources  Ontario, Canada  (Upper Canada, Canada West) Concerns more than one County Main District Marriage/Vital Records Page What Are The District Marriage/Vital Records & Why Are They Important? Map of Ontario Districts 1836 | Map of Ontario Districts 1845 More Ontario Resources | More Canadian Resources BOOK - VOLUME 16: SIMCOE DISTRICT MARRIAGE REGISTER 1842-1857 Compiled by Dan Walker & Fawne Stratford-Devai Published by Global Heritage Press The Simcoe District was created from the Home District in March 1837, however, the District was not officially proclaimed until a court house and a jail were constructed by 1843. Once formally established in late 1842 and early 1843, marriage returns for Simcoe County had to be returned to the Clerk of the Peace in the District Town of Barrie. Returns were sent to the Clerk of the Peace from ministers who performed marriages, with the exception of Anglican and Roman Catholic ministers. On the 30 May 1849 the Simcoe District was abolished. For marriages prior to 1842, consult the Home District Marriage Register. Beginning in 1858, a seperate county marriage register was created. This publication has been transcribed from the original Simcoe District Marriage Register 1842-1857 held by the Archives of Ontario. Entries have been transcribed in the exact order they appear in the original register. Given the small size of the Simcoe District Marriage Register, baptism and Birth information from two Presbyterian churches have also been included. The Baptismal Register of First Canada Presbyterian Congregation of Essa 1835-1858 has been transcribed with the permission of the Presbyterian Church in the Canada Archives. These records have not been microfilmed. The Birth Register of the Mono Mills Presbyterian Pastoral Charge (1831~ circa 1877) has been transcribed for inclusion in this publication with permission from the Church of Canada Archives.
