| | | | Creator: | Saint John's Episcopal Church | | | | Dates: | 1909-1984 | | | | Abstract: | Saint John's Episcopal Church is a congregation which maintains the oldest church edifice in Cleveland, Ohio, the group splitting off from Trinity Parish when it moved from Ohio City to Cleveland's east side in 1826. In the late 1960s, the congregation merged with the Inner City Protestant Parish, an interdenominational group of congregations which met at St. John's and other churches during the 1950s and 1960s. The church is also known as St. John's Historic Episcopal Church. The collection consists of minutes of the trustees and parish council, financial information, administrative records, documents pertaining to the restoration of the church building, and files relating to the parish history. The collection pertains to the administrative functions of a prominent Cleveland parish, its efforts to restore the church edifice, and its involvement in ecumenical and reform movements, from the 1920s to the 1980s. | | | | Call #: | MS 4371 | | | | Extent: | 1.60 linear feet (4 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Saint John's Episcopal Church (Cleveland, Ohio) -- Archives. | Episcopal Church -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Church records and registers -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Church architecture -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Conservation and restoration. | Historic buildings -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Conservation and restoration. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Church history -- Sources. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Buildings, structures, etc.
