Collection material in English
On September 27, 1814 the parish of St. John's was formed by the organization of "the
wardens and vestrymen of St. John's Church in Canandaigua under the supervision of
Bishop J.H. Hobart." The parish's first church building was consecrated December 12,
1816, but as soon as 1822, debt forced the society to advertise it for sale. A gift
of $1500 by the Trinity Church of New York City, and an additional $5000 subscribed
by members and friends of the church made its sale unnecessary. In 1873 this church
was demolished and a new one was constructed.
One volume of warden's and vestrymen's meeting minutes (1837-1869), one volume of
annual warden's and vestrymen's meeting minutes (1857-1859); four volumes of
membership information (1834-1849, 1816-1835, 1816-1869, 1863-1892); one volume of
accounts for the construction of the church (1816-1817) and a pamphlet entitled "The
Protestant Episcopal Pulpit" containing the transcriptions of two sermons.
