Open a virtual door to early Canadian homes, and explore the exceptional collection of furniture, paintings and domestic objects assembled by John and Heather Harbinson. This online exhibition provides a unique look at how the things around us shed light on our roots’.

Research Tip!The latest census for Canada to be released to the public was the 1921 census. After 1921, the Voter’s List (1935 - 1980), which will list the head of the house (and possibly his wife and other members of the family if they worked at the time) can be used as a substitute for the census. ========================================================================
