History
The land registry system was set up in Upper Canada under John Graves Simcoe through An Act for the Public Registering of Deeds, Conveyances, Wills and Other Incumbrances which shall be made or may affect any Lands, Tenements or Hereditaments within the Province (35 Geo.III c.5, 37 Geo.III c.8, and 58 Geo.III c.3) in 1795. A subsequent revision to these acts through An Act to Consolidate and Amend the Registry Laws of that part of this Province which was formerly Upper Canada (9 Vic. c.34) required the establishment of separate registers for each village, township, town and city.
