All Parochial Giving (1891-1900) to the “Home Missions to Colored People” in the Diocese of New Jersey

The “Home Mission to Colored People” was founded under the name “Freedman’s Commission,” by the General Convention of the Episcopal Church in 1865 to aid in the education of newly emancipated Black people in the South. It was renamed the “Home Mission to Colored People” in 1868, and then folded into the Board of Missions in 1878, ceasing to be its own separately operating commission. Below is listed the raw data for the churches in the Diocese of New Jersey that gave to these domestic “Missions” reported between 1891 and 1900. This data is culled from the annual parochial reports published in diocesan convention journals during that time. You will find it far easier to search through this culled material than to search through the publicly available digital scans of diocesan journals directly. Perusing this data will allow you to follow leads from the diocesan journal reporting data more efficiently. Though the racial nomenclature employed in the original documentation is no longer acceptable in modern usage, the original wording of the text is preserved here for the sake of historical accuracy.

Nota bene: During this period the Woman’s Auxiliary to the Board of Missions did fundraising for various initiatives and reports those donations separately, however it is unclear to what degree individual parishes included donations to the Woman’s Auxiliary earmarked for “Home Missions to Colored People” in their parochial reports, and when they did, how (there is certainly overlap at times). As such, some of the fund data included here may be included in the Woman’s Auxiliary numbers as well, which are not noted here.
