The Government of Saskatchewan eHealth website is slowly adding birth, death and marriage data beginning from 1905 when Saskatchewan became a province. It’s worth your time to try searching!

How to access
The information is searchable provided you and your ancestors can agree on how things were spelled.
- Births registered in Saskatchewan more than 100 years ago
- Deaths registered in Saskatchewan more than 70 years ago
- Marriages registered in Saskatchewan more than 75 years ago
You can search for you ancestors by last name, given name, place and year using Begins-With, Exactly and Contains criteria. If your ancestors didn’t care too much about spelling you will find this more challenging as there is no sounds-like (Soundex) search function.
You can order actual copies of the records that may contain more information than are displayed on the website but searching the website is a good start.
