Questions or Suggestions About the Archives?

As we strive to preserve our history, we welcome questions and suggestions.  If you would like to ask about what to save or dispose of in your parish records, you are welcome to contact Joan Lawson at 330-744-8451 x290, or email jlawson@youngstowndiocese.org.

If you need to send a notation for a baptismal record, or find a sacramental record from a closed or merged parish, but aren’t certain where the records reside, please phone the Archives, or check this page on Catechist Café: https://catechistcafe.weebly.com/sacramental-records.html . The Archives Office is pleased to search for sacramental records of closed parishes and is happy to assist parishes as needed.
