Background to the St Andrews West Series: 

This series of books contains transcriptions of the parish records for St. Andrew's Roman Catholic Church in Cornwall Township, Ontario.

St. Andrews West, the oldest parish in the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry in Ontario, is located in Cornwall Township, in Stormont. The church and its congregation have strong ties to the early history of the province. In fact, the Parish Hall was used as a hospital in the War of 1812. The St. Andrews Church building, as it stands today, was built in 1860. It in the Gothic style, featuring a lofty bell tower and spire. The recreated ‘Log Church’ is a replica of one of the first Catholic churches in Upper Canada. The first settlers to the parish arrived in the 1780s from New York state. Rev. Roderick MacDonell of Leek arrived from Scotland in 1785. The majority of early settlers to the parish were United Empire Loyalists and others seeking asylum in British North America (Canada) after the American Revolution. One of the largest groups to settle were members of the K.R.R.N.Y. (Kings Royal Regiment of New York).

The parish register transcriptions are broken into seven parts/volumes, distinguished by date range, plus a single volume of Burials

Note about print quality: Duncan (darby) MacDonald U.E. created the paper masters for these books in the 1980s using a photocopier. When Global Genealogy acquired the rights and republished the works in 2010, they digitally cleaned the surviving masters to the best that they can be. The result is quite readable, though some photographs and photocopies of documents are not at the standard that we expect today. Also of note is that MacDonald made pencil correction on his masters from time to time.  Those are included as provided to us.
