Hi Christena.
As you can see by my posts I am working on various Anderson's, Good's and Collin's in Bruce Co again. It seams like all roads lead to this County at some point or other for my families. Later they nearly all moved to Manitoba or South Dakota.
Is the Ontario Death index online or on microfilm. I am looking for the death of Catherine Collins who was married to William Collins. She died only 10 years after they were married and is buried in Bervie Cemetry in Kincardine Twp. Her date of death was October 7, 1872 and I want to order her death certificate but need the registration number. Catherine's maiden name was Anderson. Could you have a look to see if she is listed if you have the index?
Thank you once again
Doris

I searched the Ontario Death Index (FHL # 1411568) for a Catherine Collins , date of death 7 October 1872 and found no entry. I searched the period 1873 & 1874 and found no entry. I also search the index ( FHL # 1765849) for a Catherine Anderson with the same date of death and found no entry.
Civil registration of deaths was mandated as of 1 July, 1869.
For whatever reasons, compliance was not 100 %. There is a possibility the death of your Catherine Collins was not registered at the time of the event.

Thank you again for your time and effort. I am striking out in all directions where this family is concerned. In the 1871 census, which you found for me, they are W. Methodist so I guess I'll have to try to find churches in the area that they lived and try to get a death record for them. First I will have to see if they owned some land in order to pinpont where they lived in Bruce South.
At one time you mentioned the write up on the Collins family in Families and Farms of Huron with it's hub Ripley and said there was quite a lot of information on the Collins family. Would it be possible for you to send that to me? It may give me some clues on this family. By the way, Catherine Jane (Anderson) Collins went by the name Jane most of the time.
Thanks
Doris
