Stanbridge Township
A Loyalist region - First settled in 1797 and located north of St. Armand, south of West Farnham, east of the Parishes of St. George and St. George of Henryville, west of Dunham Township - The records originating from the Office de l'État Civil du Québec, the Archives nationales du Québec, the Institut Drouin in regard to civil registers can be at best described as being ambiguous concerning the township of Stanbridge, the hamlets and villages of Stanbridge, Stanbridge Centre, Stanbridge East, Stanbridge Ridge, Stanbridge Station and as such to the best of my knowledge, I have tried to list the various churches and missions to the proper community and match said civil registers available today as microfilms or books or databases to the proper community. I most likely failed in certain cases - see; http://www.uelac.org/UELAC-history/Branching-Out
