St. Pierre and Miquelon Vital Records
of Newfoundlanders
1884

The following is a translation of birth, death, marriage records of Saint-Pierre, Miquelon, and Île aux chiens.
The earliest records are Roman Catholic, and after the French Revolution they became civil.

In the 1700s, when the penal laws banned papists in Newfoundland, devout Roman Catholics in Placentia Bay and Burin
went to the island of Saint-Pierre for baptisms and marriages.  After the French Revolution, Saint-Pierre became the trade entrepôt. 
Many people from Placentia Bay, Burin, and Fortune Bay went there to work.  The island also had the only hospital in the region.  

The birth, death. marriage records are presented together in a cronological listing .

For St. Pierre records before the French Revolution check in the "Parish Records" section.
