História administrativa
In the late 1700s, as the Church of England became established in Canada, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel (S. P. G.) supported clergymen, providing funds to support living costs and to assist with other expenses. in the early 1800s, the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge (S. P. C. K.) took on the task of supplying books for use of churches in different parts of the country, working alongside the S. P. G.
A "Church Society of the Archdeaconry of New Brunswick" was formed in 1837 to take over the duties of the S. P. G. and S. P. C. K, such as to carry out missionary visits, establish scholarships for study, provide aid for Sunday Schools and other schools, supply books and tracts, and aid in the building and expansion of churches. In 1847, that society was renamed "The Diocesan Church Society of New Brunswick" and expanded its mission to provide support for the construction of parsonages and to create a fund to help with incapacitated clergy, widows and orphans of clergy, and the children of clergy. A comparable society was founded in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, in 1840, and incorporated in 1852. Other societies were formed in other parts of Canada, apparently often in response to diminishing financial support from the Church in England. The Society was still in existence as of 2007.
História custodial
The Diocesan Church Society Archives form part of the St. Peter's Cathedral Church archives, which were relocated from the church bell tower to the church basement and then into a purpose-built archival room. The records had been stored in boxes and bags at one point and original order was lost. Additional materials related to the Diocesan Church Society were added to the archives as work on the backlog was carried out and volunteers donated related materials. Files were constructed from documents found among the Archives’ backlog as part of the DHCP-funded archival processing project. Additional documents were found loose in boxes or in other locations around the church.
The custodial history of the Diocesan Church Society archives is unclear but it appears as though members of St. Peter’s Cathedral Church served in different capacities on the Diocesan Church Society and retained official records as part of their duties, which were stored in various locations in the church. This file list shows documents in BOX order, but sometimes the documents do not appear in chronological order. Users should read the file list carefully to ensure they locate all materials relevant to their area of inquiry.
