Marg See below from a book I have with Ontario counties:
Canada West was established in 1841. Prior to this time it was known as Upper Canada. In 1867 Canada West became Ontario. Don Brown Orangeville, Ontario, Canada From: Marg Strong [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2012 4:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Entering Canadian Locations - Changing boundaries? I've been confused because some records use, Canada West, or for County they use Grey, Grey North, Grey (north/norde). I did look up the history to find out more about where "Canada West" came from. My question is for those who have Ontario records to source. Do you use Canada West for the country? Would you just use "Grey" to keep it standardized, or would you use what the census uses, however it comes out? Often on the census it goes by district rather than county which could be different. It also often gives the township. I'm wondering how Legacy users enter these different results into their Master Location list. Thank you for any help!
