At present one might secure information on the Marriage bonds (1763-1871), Cape Breton land petitions (1787-1843), Appeal casebooks (1890-1947) and the Medical Examiner files for the City of Halifax and Town of Dartmouth (1895-1967).

    "The Acadian Recorder was a weekly newspaper published out of Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada during the 1800's.

In some cases there will also be additional information added, such as estate notices, property sales, advertisers lists and odd bits of interesting information." The records seem to encomapss the years 1817-21.
