Calgary, Alberta Newspaper Announcements: 1883-1899

Births Marriages Deaths

These pages are indexes names extracted from microfilms of the birth, marriage, and death announcements from early issues of three Calgary, Alberta newspapers: Calgary Herald Weekly (CHW), Calgary Herald Daily (CHD), Calgary Tribune (TRB). The data from 1883-1889 were extracted by Gordon McMahon while the data from 1890-1899 were extracted by a number of volunteers who were coordinated by Nancy Cunningham. They certainly are to be thanked for their hard work in reviewing and documenting the old newspapers, but also in preparing electronic copy for this website.

As in any transcription, there may be errors, so all data retrieved from this site should be considered tentatively until confirmed with personal viewing of the microfilm copies of the identified newspaper or with other, primary documentation (e.g. first-hand accounts or copies of records that registered these events with church or government).
