This series consists of records related to timber marks on private land. The records were created and used by the Kaslo office of the Nelson Forest District from approximately 1940-1978. Private timber marks are used to transport logs from privately-owned land by certifying ownership of the logs. The records relate to the issuance of timber marks on private lands pursuant to the Forest Act. This includes applications, approvals, certificates, Letters of Marking Authority, inspection reports, correspondence, notices of timber mark cancellation, scaling records, and some licences to cut on private land. The records include many maps of district lots where timber was cut.
The records are arranged by district lot (DL). Note that most files only relate to a smaller portion of a district lot. The file list includes the relevant district lot and the name of the licensee for each file.
Records in this series are covered under ORCS numbers 19280-35 in the Ministry of Forests records schedule (number 881261).
