Apart from the Ball, Minutes and Caledonian Society, the St Andrew’s Society of Montreal has an extensive collection of material dealing with our history, other events, and members.
Some online resources here: History of our Burial Sites Register of Emigrants from the St Andrew’s Home This is a register of the emigrants who passed through the home between June 27, 1857 and February 15, 1904.
