The Ontario Genealogical Society has a website that they have been adding to
for a few years.

They have inputted Census, Births, Marriages, Deaths in their Provincial
Index. I know that they are constantly looking for volunteers to help with
this.

You can get more information and access this site at

> Hello everyone,

> Just wanted to give you all a quick update. I have contacted the Ontario

will

>
> I have also contacted Sherri at the Ontario GenWeb site. She is very
> willing to host a searchable database containing the Ontario BMD Index
> reels. It will fit in nicely with their BMD Registrations and Census
> projects that are already underway.
>
> I am going to post similar messages on county pages looking for more
> volunteers and for more information.
>
> I will give everybody another update as soon as I hear back from the
Ontario
