Declaration & Dissolutions of Partnerships (1870-1953)

In Ontario, all business partnerships, formed and dissolved, are to be registered with the Registry Office (Service Ontario). Early declarations and dissolutions provide a fascinating history into early businesses in the county and those that operated them. As businesses in Oxford County could register their partnerships in either Oxford, or one of the surrounding Counties (Elgin, Middlesex, Norfolk, Perth, and Waterloo) these records do not contain a complete list of Oxford businesses. However, it does give insight into the development of the County over an almost 85 year period.
