Fantastic - have found my great-uncle's marriage record.

Brilliant, thank you so much.

Jan - there's multiple routes - you can go to Ancestry.ca via the switch at bottom right (which probably currently says Ancestry.co.uk).

You can select Search - BMDS incl parish from main banner bar, and pick, say "Quebec Vital and Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1621-1967" from the list.

You can look up an English marr in the GRO index for Smith, say, and then at top left of hits, click on "All Birth, Marriage & Death, including Parish Results" and select the Canadian collection of interest (maybe this only works with the old style search, which is what I normally use).

Thanks for the tip! Can I just ask how to find where to search? Thanks.
