"YOUR FRIENDLY SOURCE FOR GENEALOGY IN THE KAWARTHAS"

WELCOME TO KARA ONLINE:

Welcome to the KARA Online site. We have expanded on our original site to include some unique online resources. We're certain these will help you to start your genealogy research. Now included are the Robinson Settlers organized as lists by the ships on which the families arrived, also a section on cemetery arti and symbolism, lists on early area post office locations, tips, and other helpful sections. We aim to continue adding interesting new material related to families and the early history of this region. As well, we invite you to visit our online store which offers for sale numerous items relevant to family history research. Please feel welcome to browse, and view.

Inside the KARA Research Centre:

Shown are two photographs of materials within the library of the KARA reading room, just a small sampling of what awaits the avid family history researcher upon arrival to our Research Centre. The KARA library contains one of the largest collections of family history material for the central-east Ontario region. Researchers and visitors to KARA are continually delighted by their discoveries of new resources on our library shelves.

In the future we will be adding a specific page on the KARA website, relating to the library and the resources that are featured at KARA.
