Surname Interest List – QUINTE BRANCH

Helping Hands Outreach Program at Quinte Branch to facilitate research collaboration, brick wall demolition, and cousin finding – the best description of the Surname Interest List process.

The SIL is composed of over 4500 family surnames of interest to our members, past members and library contacts (AKA the providers), based on their research focus in Hastings, Prince Edward, and neighboring Counties. If you would like to make contact with another researcher, click on the Research menu and select Surname Interest List (SIL). Review the list of surnames, and if you find something of interest, submit the form. We will forward your contact request to each provider you have identified and we will ask them to consider replying. It will be entirely up to them, much like tree owner requests on Ancestry and other well-known genealogical websites.
