BOOK on CD EDITION

The Parish Registers of Births, Marriages, Deaths of St. Regis Roman Catholic Mission (Early Jesuit) 1784-1879, Part II 1831-1879 
Compiled by Duncan MacDonald

This pair of books contain the transcribed Baptism, Burial and Marriage registers of St. Regis Roman Catholic Mission which began as an early Jesuit Mission that served Roman Catholics in South Glengarry Township, and the area immediately to the south in New York State, and to the east in the province of Quebec. South Glengarry Township is in the present-day united counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry.

Mr. MacDonald created the paper masters for these books in the 1980s using a photocopier. The publisher (2010) has digitally cleaned the masters to the best that they can be, reproducing the work onto high quality paper using the latest digital print technology. The result is quite readable, though some photographs and photocopies of documents are not at the standard that we expect today.
