ARCHIVES PAROISSIALES. The most noteworthy holdings of parish archives in Quebec are the registers of baptisms, marriages, and burials (RBMB/RBMS), copies of which are deposited at the Archives Civiles of the judicial district in which the parish is located [see Québec, Ministère de la Justice]. Parish archives usually contain many other documents, including parish account-books, records of the fabriques, registers of parish confraternities, notebooks of sermons, and sometimes correspondence.
BRITISH COLUMBIA ARCHIVES AND RECORDS SERVICE, Victoria. In 1975 the archives began a new cataloguing system for its private manuscript holdings. Manuscripts catalogued since then have been assigned Additional Manuscript (Add. mss) numbers. A partial listing of Add. mss and microfilm collections has been published by the archives (under its former name, the Provincial Archives of British
Columbia) as Manuscript inventory, ed. Frances Gundry (3 nos. to date, 1976– ). Manuscripts catalogued under the old system are gradually being converted to the new one and given Add. mss numbers. Educational records are detailed in BCARS, The school record: a guide to government archives relating to public education in British Columbia, 1852–1946, comp. P. A. Dunae ([ 1992]).

Hillman, and Checklist of parish registers, 1986, rev. Patricia Birkett (4th ed., 1987). Maps and plans in the Cartographic and Audio-Visual Archives Division (formerly the National Map Collection) are listed in the Catalogue of the National Map Collection, Public Archives of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario (16v., Boston, 1976).
The NA’s publications also include the Union list of manuscripts in Canadian repositories, ed. E. G. Maurice [Hyam] et al. (2v., 1975), and 4 supps.

QUÉBEC, MINISTÈRE DE LA JUSTICE, Québec. The Archives Civiles and the Archives Judiciaires of Quebec, which are under the joint jurisdiction of the courts and the Ministère de la Justice, constitute two separate repositories. The Archives Judiciaires are deposited at the courthouses in the administrative centres of the provincial judicial districts. The Ministère de la Justice also has responsibility for the records deposited in the Bureaux d’Enregistrement.
A list of the judicial districts can be found in Relevé alphabétique des toponymes populaires du Québec, Commission Toponymique du Québec, compil. (Québec, 1989).
ARCHIVES CIVILES. These archives retain documents for the last 100 years, including registers of births, marriages, and deaths, notaries’ minutiers (minute-books), and records of surveyors active in the various districts. Earlier documents are held by the ANQ.
ARCHIVES JUDICIAIRES. These repositories hold the records of the various courts: documents still current, roughly those of the last five years, remain at the court-houses; semi-active material from about the last 25 years is placed in one of the 13 centres organized by the Ministère de la Justice, where some preliminary archival work is undertaken; documents more than 30 years old are placed in the regional repositories of the ANQ.
BUREAUX D’ENREGISTREMENT. The registry offices hold all property titles and contracts affecting real estate: sales, marriages, wills and estates, mortgages, conveyances, assignments, gifts, guardianships, and trusteeships.
QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY ARCHIVES, Kingston, Ont. Information on the manuscript collections is provided in A guide to the holdings of Queen’s University Archives, ed. Anne MacDermaid et al. (2nd ed., 2v., 1986–87).
