Archives of the Archdiocese of New York

The Archives of the Archdiocese of New York does NOT have sacramental records for the parishes within the archdiocese.  For information about sacramental records, you need to contact the individual parish.  Please click here for a list of parishes by date established and borough/county.  If you have trouble determining which parish to contact, Archives staff may be able to help you.  The Archives does maintain records about the history of the various parishes, and these files are open to researchers by appointment.


Generally, schools within the Archdiocese of New York maintain their own records.  To obtain a transcript or other school information, please contact the school directly. For an incomplete list of the location of closed high school records, please click here.
