Formal UGG-NCR meetings for this season follows our traditional approach of being convened on the fourth Tuesday of each month, with the exception of December where there we will not be any meeting. Meetings will also be suspended for the summer months of June, July and August. Start time is 7:30 PM (Eastern) unless otherwise noted.
Since the start of January 2020, the UGG-NCR’s formal monthly meetings have been delivered as on-line “Webinars” rather than in-person presentations / discussions.

“An Introduction to the 1931 Canadian Census” by Myron Momryk
In 2023, Library and Archives Canada, Ancestry and FamilySearch are cooperating to prepare the 1931 Canadian Census for researchers and the general public. The plan is to produce a searchable index and a fully verified transcription of all fields on the census form. When this project is completed in the near future, the 1931 Census will be searchable and available to genealogists and family historians.
In this webinar, Myron provided a basic explanation of the census form, the various fields and also some of the problems with the fields and personal names that are specific to the Ukrainian community in Canada.
A video recording of Myron’s Webinar presentation can be found here. We also have recordings of the Introductory and Q&A segments from that evening. Myron has also provided a summary of his bibliography as well as instructions on how to access the Census via MyHeritage. Myron has also provided written responses to questions submitted during the webinar.
