Manitoba and Saskatchewan records added to Ancestry

The following Canadian collections are now available on Ancestry (www.ancestry.co.uk), which may be of interest if your ancestors emigrated there from Britain and Ireland, particularly if they worked for or settled in areas controlled by the Hudson's Bay Company:

Baptisms, marriages, and burials from various Roman Catholic parishes in Saskatchewan, Canada. Confirmations may also be found. Records typically appear in either register or paragraph format, and are written in French and English. Some registers may have latin headings, but the entries will be written in English or French. Because of the location and time period of these records, some registers may include Metis families in the old Northwest Territories and in the province of Sakatchewan.
