Episcopal

This inventory lists the records available to researchers in the Archives of the Episcopal Diocese of New York at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.

Over the past 300 years the Episcopal Church has been the spiritual home of numerous New York City families. Its registers form a major resource for genealogists, even more so because many non-Episcopalians also appear in them.

Organized in 1793 and 1805, respectively, Christ Church and St. Stephen's were the second and fifth Episcopal parishes to be established in New York City (then Manhattan).
