Between 1713 and 1758, parish priests maintained records of the religious ceremonies
they performed; their records being very similar to those of modern day. These
records document events such as the births, marriages, and deaths of the people
of the Fortress of Louisbourg. They are organized primarily by the type of ceremony;
and secondly, by year.
