It is instructive to remember that this is a "new" province of Canada which was a separate British Colony until 1949. As such, many of the early records you may be looking for will be in United Kingdom sites rather than Canadian ones.

We have gathered together lists of those resources we are aware of for the most common resources, and also some of the less common places to look for information about your family. So, help yourself to the information below, and go hunting.

The Archives of Newfoundland and Labrador is a resource to start looking for your family history.

The Newfoundland and Labrador Genealogical Society is a part of the Genealogy Resource Center and makes available both links to other sites containing genealogical data as well as history of the region.
