Registers of Civil Status of Quebec from 1900 to 1909 (aa) An error

This topic was already covered in a note dated July 6, 2009 under the title Records Vital Quebec from 1900 to 1907 .

We want to add additional comments to those made then and as a result of this consultation a number of these registers:

- the title on the Portal BAnQ has been changed to: Registers of Quebec Vital origins to 1909 and wanting reflect additions made following the filing of certain records by the Director Vital . Moreover, how a user can know the additions and records available to a parish without having to check each of the parishes? A table showing the records available online would be greatly appreciated
- the classification of certain records is not always very special and happy as an example: starting with a registry hospital or hospice ward
name - the name chosen for some parishes is surprising, and indeed, what are the criteria used to do this? Sometimes it is difficult to navigate. As examples, here is a list of parish names and descriptions found in the authentication certificate of the prothonotary:

St. Elisabeth of Hungary, [St. Elizabeth Warwick]
St. George Protestant Congregation [St George Drummondville]
St George's Anglican Church [Church of England for the District of Rimouski]
Immaculate Conception in Bellerive (Beauharnois) [Notre-Dame de Bellerive, Salaberry de Valleyfield]
Savages Mills Anglican Church Savage Mills, North Shefford [North Shefford (Church of England)]
Grey Nuns, Châteauguay [acts of Burials Religious Sisters of Charity of Montreal General Hospital, who became the new cemetery on the island in St Bernard Parish Châteauguay commonly called Ile des Soeurs]
...
- a special case, and some records [Drummondville, Trois-Rivières] have been described as " Records for compulsory registration of non-baptized children " appellation is somewhat curious since, in fact, this is registers established and maintained by municipalities for the registration of deeds. An illustration that this title is a misnomer: Trois-Rivieres, the only act of that register for the year 1903 makes particular reference in the text that " His baptism [the child] was administered approximately four months later by a priest of the Orthodox religious belief !
- it would be useful to have the screen of a specific email address to report a problem with the records in this collection
- the space reserved on the screen for viewing images acts is still limited and this important shortcoming is unfortunate.

Moreover, we must remember the beautiful image quality of these registers. This aspect of these registers is especially appreciated that the images of other records available online, those on the site of the Mormons and those of the Drouin Collection, do not compare in this regard and have no chance of being improved.
