Series 4. Financial Records, 1873-1991
13 box(es)
(6.5 linear feet)

The records in this series document to some extent the financial transactions recorded in the Ledgers series. There is considerable overlap between the two series in documenting financial transactions of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Included are bank books, bank statements, budget reports, check registers, financial statements of estates, credit and deposit slips, investment committee reports, payrolls for the church choir, payroll receipts, promissory notes, and treasurer's annual and monthly reports.

Approximately five linear feet of financial records consisting of canceled checks and paid bills and receipts were returned to the parish because the financial information they contained is available in the ledgers of Series III and in the bank statements, check registers, and other financial records of this series.

Arrangement: The records in this series are arranged alphabetically by subject or type of record and chronologically within folders.
