Immaculate Conception Civil Death Records
West Arichat
Note: Microfilmed at Public Archives of Nova Scotia by the Genealogical Society, Salt Lake City, Utah, 9 Dec 1980. Film Emulsion #1460 119 173 MRD2. Transcribed by Arlene A. MacDonald, March 2004, from microfilm held at Beaton Institute, Sydney, N.S
Special Note: Usually, I do not try to interpret any transcribed records for the group. However, because the West Arichat Deaths are very difficult to place, I offer some thoughts for your consideration. The information should be used only as a guide. If anyone can offer further information, we will certainly appreciate it. Jeanne Belford: jbelford@aol.com
Special Note: Not all entries indicate cause of death. Also, there are names that sometimes appear at the end of the transcriptions. The records do not indicate the person’s relationship to the deceased.
