Biographical history

The date of the establishment of the County Court at Lillooet has not yet been determined by BC Archives research staff (to March 2016).

On January 9, 1975, the British Columbia government approved and ordered OIC # 0091-1975, which disestablished the registries of both the County Court and Supreme Court established at Lillooet, effective 1975 April 1. The same order applied to the County Court and Supreme Court registries at Kaslo and Vanderhoof.

On February 27, 1975, the British Columbia government approved and ordered OIC # 0803-1975. This ordered that the previous order, OIC # 0091-1975, be amended, revoking its application to the registries of the Supreme Court and of the County Court at Lillooet (and at Vanderhoof).

All County Courts were merged into the Supreme Court on July 1, 1990.

Custodial history

Scope and content

The series is an index or register related to the Sale of Goods Act, including liens, conditional bills of sale, bills of sale, promissory notes, and receipts for labour. Names are entered alphabetically. The left side of each folio lists the vendors alphabetically and the right side lists the names of the purchaser. Each entry includes the file number, date of filing, nature of instrument/purchase, name of the vendor and name of the purchaser.

The sales were made under subsection 4 of section 2 of the “Sale of Goods Act Amendment” (SBC 1916, c. 56) which states “The office for filing shall be the office of the Registrar of the County Court holden in or nearest to the place where delivery of the chattels is made or required to be made.”
