5 Dictionary of Canadian Biographies

biographi.ca

This free dictionary of Canadian biographies is great for finding references to influential individuals from Canada’s past. You can search by subject keyword, or scroll the A-Z for names and subjects. Searching under ‘Scott’, for example, we find two Jonathans – a lay preacher, Congregational minister, and author born in 1744, and a Nottingham-born Methodist clergyman, who died in Brampton, Ontario, in 1880.
