Going Beyond Vital Events Records:
Finding Family at the BC Archives
The BC Archives is the provincial repository for records relating to British Columbia.
The archives provides access to the vital events (birth, marriage and death)
registrations. This is often the starting point for building a family tree, but did you
know that there are many other records in our holdings that can unlock the mysteries
of your family history? This workshop will cover the Top 10 record types to aid with
genealogy research, and will also discuss navigating the BC Archives processes,
