Welcome to the Archives!

The Diocesan Archives is the official repository for the permanent records of the Diocese, containing a wealth of historical and official documents. The Archives of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire is located ‘down under’ in the basement area of the Diocesan House, 63 Green Street, Concord, New Hampshire. Two secure, temperature controlled vaults contain official records and acts of your Bishops, beginning with Alexander Viets Griswold, Bishop of the Eastern Diocese, 1811-1843.

Duties of the Registrar include collecting and preserving published journals, papers, reports, pamphlets, and other documents relating to the history of the Church in this Diocese. The Diocesan Archives does not maintain the records of active parishes. See link to “Guide to Parishes and Parish Archives/2008”.

Questions? The office is usually staffed Tuesday and Wednesday, 8:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m., or by appointment.
