to Victoria Court Divorces,
1877 - 1931
While these records are
from the Victoria Court Registry it also includes many
cases from outside of Victoria. Most of these records
are divorces, however, there are also judicial
separations, marriages ordered null and void
(annulled) and petitions involving alimony and custody
of children.
Duplicates
in names do occur in some instances, that are not an
error. The decision was made to leave them as they
stand and connect the names to the record whether they
are petitioner, respondent or co-respondent.
