Series consists of typescript copies of entries from the |
|
Abstract Indexes to Deeds books originally held at the |
|
Peel Land Registry Office, covering ca. 1806 to the 1920s |
|
or so. The files were compiled by staff working for Wm. |
|
Perkins Bull as part of his research project on Peel |
|
County. |
|
|
|
The files are organized by township, concession, and lot. |
|
In addition to key details about land ownership over |
|
time, Bull s staff also added in information from the |
|
original surveyor s diaries (1806-1820s) with regard to |
|
local vegetation and landforms[1] then found on each lot, |
|
as well as additional information about people and |
|
families on the land gleaned from other records. |
|
|
|
The following townships are reflected in the listings: |
|
Toronto, Toronto Gore, Chinguacousy, Albion, and Caledon. |
|
Please note that no material exists for the Trafalgar |
|
Township lands annexed to Mississauga in 1974. These |
|
records therefore cover modern day Brampton, Caledon, and |
|
most of Mississauga. These records are particularly |
|
useful for those trying to ascertain the legal history of |
|
lands in the Credit Indian Reserve (CIR) in southern |
|
Mississauga, given the complexity of those surveys. |
|

Related records at the Region of Peel Archives include |
|
the Abstract Indexes to Deeds, Copy Books, and Instruments |
|
[2] found in the Peel Land Registry Office fonds. Date is |
|
a circa date. |
