RELATED RECORDS: Additional records pertaining to land titles can be found in the Central Registry series of Alberta Justice (GR0023).
GENERAL NOTE: Currently, the records relating to the land titles registry for the Province of Alberta are permanently retained by the Land Titles Offices in Edmonton and Calgary.

Researchers seeking to learn who owned the property before the current owners can request a historical search from either Land Titles Office. Researchers may be required to provide information such as reference title numbers, owner's name, and legal description to locate a historical title. Some historical titles are available on the Alberta Land Titles Automation (ALTA) system while others are on microfilm or microfiche depending on when the titles were cancelled.

Historical title searchers may be ordered through the Alberta Registries Spatial Information (SPIN 2) System or local Registry Agents.
