As there was no civil register on Prince Edward Island prior to 1906, vital statistics information is not readily available in one specific source. With the exception of some civil marriage records, the major source of this early information is Church records, many of which have been destroyed through fire or flood, or have otherwise disappeared. These records are considered confidential. An alphabetical listing of death or burial records, taken from church records or newspaper announcements.
Information given is very limited and references are often impossible to research to source.
Information is limited, giving name, marital status, and place of residence of bride and groom, date of marriage, names of witnesses and clergyman. These have been indexed in the Master Name Index. Information is similar to that in the marriage register books although the bond does not include the date of the ceremony. Parents' names are not included on these marriage records. Many churches kept records of baptisms, marriages and deaths.
