Hello:
I am a retired/disabled person from Ontario Canada and I have taken up genealogy as a hobby after attending a family reunion more than a few years ago. I walked away from it for a little bit and I am getting back into it.
Most if not all of the generation ahead of me are gone now or I have lost contact with, so I have to rely on other sources for my information. Most if my research now is focusing on my fathers side of the family and I am finding it tough sledding. I am sure that there would be a wealth of information in the following documents:
*my fathers birth certificate from 1922
* Grandfather and grandmothers marriage certificate(if there is one there seems to be a family legend that my grand father and grandmother were not married) date unknown
*Grandmothers death certificate(around 1975-1980)
*grandfathers death certificate(in 1961 I have been to his grave)
All of these events took place in Ontario Canada between 1900 and 1980.
I have not been able to find any information of Ancestry.com of any of the other usual sites so I am kind of stymied here.
Any gentle nudging in the right direction where to try next would be appreciated
