Local History and Genealogy Research Assistance

Book an appointment for research guidance with the Local History Librarian or one of our Genealogists in Residence.

What is the Genealogists in Residence program?

We'll match you with a volunteer genealogist from Ontario Ancestors. Learn how to find more on your family tree, or ask about your next steps if you’ve hit a wall in your research.  There is no charge for this service.

Contact us by phone, email or fill in the request form below.
