BOOK - The Ottawa Citizen Birth Marriage, Anniversary, Death and Memoriam Notices 1879-1885Genealogy & History Resources By Ottawa Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society Originally published by Ottawa Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society, 2014 This reprint published by Global Heritage Press, Ottawa, 2017
Every entry includes key information about the event, plus the date of issue of the newspaper that the notice appears in, as well as the page and column the item is on. Though these books provide a essential information about the event on its own, they are especially helpful when you decide to go a step further and access the complete newspaper article/notice on microfilm or online scanned image of the newspaper. Because the issue, page and column are provided in these books, you can go directly to the microfilm page that you are interested in, instead of searching through hundreds of pages. The same is true of locating articles and notices in online scanned newspapers. The reason is that automated indexing (OCR) of digital images of 19th century digitized newspapers is notoriously incomplete because of poor quality originals and antiquated print fonts that are not completely recognized by modern OCR. By using these books as a guide you can quickly and easily go to the correct microfilmed or scanned page where the notice appears. Contents include:
