In June of 1843, representatives at the Annual Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Church in
Canada resolved that a General Register of births and baptisms be kept at the Conference office in
Toronto. Each year, every ordained minister was provided with a ruled book in which he was
required to make uniform entries of births and baptisms. At the end of the year, the minister
returned this book to the Conference Office and the entries were copied into the General Register.
This book is a transcription of the Baptismal register entries for Russell County Ontario from 1840 through 1886
Contents include:
