Quebec directories provide rich genealogical resources for tracing ancestors in Canada’s French-speaking province. Since the early 19th century, city directories for Montreal, Quebec City, and rural parishes have listed residents’ names, addresses, and occupations. These bilingual records (French and English) reflect Quebec’s diverse cultural landscape and help genealogists track family movements across urban and rural areas. Trade directories, land ownership documents, and voter lists further enhance research, particularly for locating French-Canadian, Irish, and other immigrant ancestors. These directories are invaluable for bridging gaps between church and civil records in Quebec genealogy.
