A quick guide to finding Canadian Census Schedules online

Did you know there’s a Schedule II for the 1901 Canadian census?
How about the 1871 Census – did you know there were 9 schedules and nearly all of them are available?

Marie-Angélique (dite Hay) Birranger Journals 1843-1872

Marie-Angélique (dite Hay) Birranger Journals 1843-1872, author

Written in a legible but rather careless hand in blue ink on ruled pages; some pages have the year written in the upper left corners; each entry begins with the day of the week and the date (month and number of the day)

Marie-Angélique Birranger was the wife of Henri Desrivières (1804-1865), the son of François Amable Desrivières (1764-1830), principal heir of James McGill. Henri Desrivières was a seigneur of Montarville and a political figure in Canada Est who represented Verchères in the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada in 1841
The diary describes social, family and economic life in Montreal and Stanbridge, Québec from 1 January 1857 to 20 August 1858. There are also many comments about the weather and the author's health
