Need help with a basic family history search? Discover online genealogy tools and local history collections, available at the library.
During a one hour Genealogy Coach session, library staff can help you with basic research to:
- Locate census documents or birth, marriage, and death information in newspapers from index citations.
- Introduce the Simcoe County Branch, OGS, Settlers Database finding tool.
- Discover AncestryLibrary.ca or FamilySearch.org
- Take a tour of the Ontario Ancestors Local History Collection that contains books, microfilms, and other documents covering the history, geography, geology, culture and socio-economic structure of Simcoe County. This collection is located at our Downtown Library.
- Learn how to use the Digital Microfilm Scanner.
The Digital Microfilm Scanner can also be booked for an hour of independent research by email askus@barrielibrary.ca or call 705-728-1010
