Family History Files Bonavista Historical Society Collection

The following is a list of family history files that have been compiled by the Archives. The files include a variety of information including, but not limited to, births, deaths and marriages on individuals and families within the Bonavista area. The family histories within these files originate from three sources: [1] Mr. Bert Dunn complied lists of births, deaths and marriages relating to family surnames from church records and family members, [2] Ms. Marguerite Linthorne then transformed these lists into family histories based on requests made to the Bonavista Museum and [3] lastly, individuals donated copies of their personal research to add to the family history files. Mr. Dunn and Ms. Linthorne both conducted this research on a volunteer bases. These files are continuously being added to by the current archivist. Any current files are dated to distinguish them from the original collection. Please check with the archivist for any new updates.
