Den här samlingen innehåller medlemsmatriklar, transfereringsdokument, familjeuppgifter och mötesanteckningar från den reformerta kyrkan i Amerika. De flesta uppgifterna är nedtecknade på engelska, vissa på holländska och några få på tyska.

This collection contains membership lists, transfer documents, family registers, and meeting minutes from the Christian Reformed Church of America. Most records are in English, some are in Dutch, and a few are in German. Details in the registers vary but may include the following:

  • name
  • address
  • parents’ names
  • congregation
  • birth date
  • baptism date
  • children’s names (which may include birth, baptism, marriage, and similar data)
  • date of transfer from one congregation to another

The Christian Reformed Church (CRC) traces its theological roots back to the Protestant Reformation in the sixteenth century. A break with the Dutch Reformed Church led to the organization of the CRC in 1857 in Michigan.
