Do you know these people?
We have many vintage photographs in our Archives. Several images of people we have been unable to identify, and so we’d like to enlist the help of our visitors.
The persons in this photo may be a friend or family member related to the Benjamin Hatfield family of Advocate.
If you think you know who these people are, please let us know by emailing archives@ccgsns.com stating “unknown photo #6″ in the subject line. If they are identified, we’ll post here to let you know.
“Routes to your Roots” will be featured on CTV’s Live at 5 program tomorrow, Thursday, March 8 between 5 and 6 (Atlantic time). This will cover the Council of Nova Scotia Archives welcome videos project. A video crew visited heritage sites, including our Genealogy Centre, and interviewed staff or volunteers about their site and the information available there.
Marney Gilroy, volunteer and board member spoke on our behalf. You can see the video here, or on our Facebook site. Feel free to leave a comment and click the “Like” button if you have not already done so.
You will also be able to find the item on the CTV News website after it is aired.
More information about the project is available at www.novascotiaroots.com.

We would like to welcome you to our new website, and our new web address, www.ccgsns.com.
Today we have deployed our new ‘beta’ site design. In addition to bringing the style of our site up to date, we’ve tried to organize the large amount of resources we have available so that the site is easier for you to use, and find what you need.
We’ve also added some new features, such as a site-wide search function, a discussion forum, and an image gallery. Our publications and products are now available to be purchased using a single-click Paypal button. Occasionally we’ll be posting information of interest to our members and visitors on the front page, so we hope you will always have something new to see when you visit us next.
The site is mostly complete but there are still odds and ends to add, and we will continue with that work up to and beyond our official launch date, which will correspond to the members’ meeting on February 21, 2012.
Although our previous web site address – www.ccgs.ednet.ns.ca – will continue to work, we encourage visitors to bookmark and use the new address going forward, to ensure you are seeing the most recent information.
If you have any questions or comments, please let us know by writing to us – archives@ccgsns.com.
