PEI Research Data

This page mainly contains links to notes created while researching possible links to family on Prince Edward Island in Canada. The research data contains records of Buchanans and Stewarts/Stuarts of Lots 57, 58 and 67. It also contains records of the initial settlers and later population of the Belfast area (Lots 57 and 58).

Thanks to the availability of the St. John's baptism records on line, most of the family group sheets have been updated as on July 4, 2000.

If you're interested in the Buchanans of Point Prim, Mt. Buchanan,  Belfast or anywhere else in Lots 57, 58 or 67 please send me an email.
