    • From what I can gather, the Notre-Dame de Grace parish in Hull was established well before 1886. A mission was first set up in 1832 and a church was built in 1868. The canonical erection of the parish occured in 1870. In June 1888, the existing church burned down in a district fire and the records stored in that church were destroyed. The copy of these records, kept at the "Palais de Justice", escaped destruction. In April 1900, however, a second major fire burned down the "Palais de Justice" and all records stored therein. Notre-Dame de Grace church, which had been rebuilt after 1888, escaped that fire. The end result is that all the records prior to 1888 were apparently now gone forever and we would be left with the post 1888 records that were in the new church not destroyed in that 1900 fire. However, for a reason that escapes me at this time, it appears that it is only the records prior to September 1886 that were permanently lost.
