The Episcopal Archivists is an advisory group to The Archives of the Episcopal Church. Episcopal Archivists work in a professional ministry to support the Episcopal Church as an inclusive Christian community with a rich heritage and an abundant faith in the future. The Church’s archivists recognize a common enterprise to safeguard and promote the modern texts that shape the Episcopal identity and document our collective memory. In this spirit, the Episcopal Church’s archives are the union of our spiritual culture and historical legacy, always in service of God’s mission.
If you are a diocesan or parish archivist of The Episcopal Church, this site is for you. Its purpose is to provide resources, professional expertise, and a platform for shared experience. If you have a question or suggestion, please offer it. Be in touch with us.

- 11.11.2014. Church’s Legacy from Slavery. On All Saints’ Day, November 1, 2014, the Diocese of Maryland sponsored The Trail of Souls, a physical pilgrimage to five places throughout the diocese, with an additional 20 parishes supplying historical sketches for the pilgrimage brochure. Each participating parish had used the diocesan archives to delve into their sometimes painful past as they studied the history of slavery and its legacies. Archivist Mary Klein conducted two in-depth seminars for parishes as well as assisting in the archival research for each of the participating parishes, and received thanks for her leadership role. Her participation and that of the diocese was in direct response to the 2009 General Convention’s call for every diocese to address the sin of racism, the impact of slavery on the Church, and the benefits the Church derived from that institution. The Pilgrimage may now be taken virtually, as the diocese becomes reconciled to a painful past, while at the same time giving thanks for the changes which have occurred, and works for a brighter tomorrow.
- 11.06.2014 Diocese of Olympa Convention workshop: “From the Basement to the Cloud: A Q&A with Diocesan Archivist.” The workshop presented by Diocesan Archivist Diane Wells, was an open- ended occasion to bring meet personally with Diane and discuss specific, grounded problems in managing congregational records. As the workshop noted, “Caring for our documentary heritage is important to understanding the church’s mission and to “seeing” our Christian past. If you have records, you probably have questions. Ask me and I’ll help.”
- 06.04.2014 An Episcopal Genizah. Like many large archives that have inherited numerous legacy collections, surprises are always around the corner when cleaning out the benignly ignored corners and nooks. A recent investigation of one of the caches of unidentified papers left from the Historical Society days of managing the Church Archives uncovered folded-up documents of random association, from a 1784 broadside to the Clergy and laity of Pennsylvania to the Papers of Elizabeth Boyd Graham, a 19th century missionary to China. The formerly hidden archive has produced over a dozen “new” small collections that are now described and open to researchers.
- 04.15.2014 Digital Archives at the Diocese of Olympia. Staff members at the Diocese of Olympia may now deposit electronic documents in a newly created digital archives.

Electronic records are sorted by diocesan department and access is also provided on a departmental basis. Once deposited in the digital archives an electronic record cannot be edited or altered in any way. This is an in-house repository meant for the use of diocesan staff and is not open to the public. For more information, contact Diane Wells at dwells@ecww.org.

- 12.04.2013 Truth and Reconciliation in Maryland. The Archives of the Diocese of Maryland and their Truth and Reconciliation committee will sponsor an afternoon of book signing, lecture, and discussion on Sunday, March 9, 2014, featuring Dr. T. Felder Dorn and his book Challenges on the Emmaus Road: Episcopal Bishops Confront Slavery, Civil War and Emancipation. The book focuses on the ways Episcopal bishops, both North and South, confronted and responded to the difficult issues of their time. Dr. Dorn used the Diocesan archives to research the role of Maryland’s bishop, William R. Whittingham, in his struggles to hold a divided diocese together and his role in the reunification of the Episcopal Church.
- 11.28.2013 Bon Voyage. Many thanks to Archivist Gwynedd Cannan who recently retired as Archivist of Trinity Church, Wall Street.

We are sad to see her go, but happy for her new life in Somerville, Massachusetts where she will take up her love of medieval history, theater, and French.
