File consists of single-volume update of the master plan for parks and recreation in the City of Peterborough, created in 1978. The study ran from June 1988 to February 1989 and sought to address evolving needs for parks and recreation. Graham Good and Trent University students assisted the primary author, John S. Marsh. The board of parks and recreation at the time of publication consisted of John Lewis (chairman), Robert Livingstone, Elizabeth Farquharson, Don Curtis, Larry Legault, Alderman Paul Crough, and Alderman David Edgerton. Acknowledgements include Kevin Ready, Peter Southall, Graham Good, Doug Batten, Betty Drain, and Judy Reader.

The cover is inscribed with a handwritten note that says "Please return to P.S.B. Wilson Trent University" and appears to have Wilson's signature above it.

File consists of 7 original returns, discovered by archives staff in January 2007. The documents include births, baptisms, marriages, and deaths. The marriages were not included in the Walker-Molotkow Marriage Registers; we therefore presume that they were not included in the Archives of Ontario registers. The documents are transcribed below. Also included with the 7 documents is: "A Schedule of Marriages, Births and Deaths within the United Counties of Northumberland and Durham within the year 1851," signed by T. Ward, Clerk of the Peace. (Reverse: Return of Convictions). This document provides total numbers of births, marriages, and deaths, as registered by the various ministers for the year 1851. Some of the 7 above are represented in this list.
