The denomination has two
official archives: Mennonite Church USA Archives--Goshen, and Mennonite
Church USA--North Newton. They contain the
official records of Mennonite
Church USA and its agencies. Mennonite Church USA was born,
February 1, 2002 as the result of a merger of two bodies--The General
Conference Mennonite Church (1860-2002) and the Mennonite Church
(1898-2002).
The Goshen archives was
founded in 1937, and has retained materials from the Mennonite Church,
1898-2002 . The Archives is located on Goshen
College campus, and cooperates with the Mennonite Historical Library,
Goshen College, in serving the church and research community. That
library houses genealogy history books, rare books, Mennonite
periodicals and books. The archives houses the official records of the
church, and many personal papers of Mennonites, Hutterites, Amish and
some other Anabaptist groups.
The North Newton archives
has retained materials from the General Conference Mennonite Church,
1860-2002 . It is housed at Bethel
College, along with their Mennonite Library. The two repositories also hold personal papers
of
individuals, as well as records from some inter-Mennonite
organizations, such as Mennonite Central
Committee.
