Research
Do you have a question on Manitoba history for which you cannot find an answer? Maybe we can help.
Here are some of the services that MHS researchers can provide.
BUILDING HISTORY
Do you want to know about the building in which you live or work? Depending where your building is located, we can identify who designed it, who built it, and who lived or worked in it before you.
BUSINESS / ORGANIZATION HISTORY
Has your company or organization been in operation a long time? Let us research its history and prepare a report describing the people and events that have shaped your group.
BIOGRAPHICAL / GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH
Are you trying to find a long-lost relative in Manitoba or learn more about the circumstances of their life here? We can find such information as dates of birth, marriage, and death, location of burial, and more.
SITE SCOUTING
Are you looking for a specific location for a film, television, or commercial shoot? We have extensive knowledge of sites and buildings throughout Manitoba that will meet your creative, aesthetic, budgetary, and environmental needs.
ORAL HISTORY
A lot of great, historical information is not written down but exists only in the memories of people who lived it. We can interview them and provide recordings and written transcriptions of their memoirs.
SOMETHING ELSE ?
Do you have a historical project that never got completed? We can finish it for you. Do you have some work that is not described here? Contact us!
