Archives of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire

The Diocesan Archives is the official repository for the permanent records of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire. The collection contains a wide range of historical and administrative documents from the over 220 years of the Episcopal Church in New Hampshire.

It is the mission of the Diocesan Archives to preserve materials generated by the Diocese in the work it does to support the Episcopal congregations throughout the state. In addition, it is the role of the Registrar to support congregations and help them to meet the requirements established by the Episcopal Church in maintaining their own archives collections. This is done through education and support, providing resources and guidance to help preserve the unique histories of each of our member communities.

The following is a list of online resources gathered by the Registrar to support congregations in their work:
