:::E-mail 12 August 2020: "Lutheran Church registers held by the Provincial Archives of Alberta (PAA); As we only acquired them in 2018, these records are still being processed.... The archivist that is working on that... shared the attached file list with me, which outlines the parishes from which we have registers. Unfortunately, we have not yet transcribed the date ranges for each register. They do start in the late 1800s, but each one will cover a different time period (sometimes even by sacrament, as in baptisms 1895-1945; marriages 1901-1966; burials 1899-1945) When it comes to access, the bulk of these records will be restricted under the following time periods (under agreement between the PAA and the church). | :::E-mail 12 August 2020: "Lutheran Church registers held by the Provincial Archives of Alberta (PAA); As we only acquired them in 2018, these records are still being processed....

::As I previously mentioned, these registers tend to contain baptisms, marriages and burials in one. This means that even for public records, we will often have to locate a person’s name within a mixed register on behalf of a researcher (as opposed to the record being browsed in our reading room). As we are unable to copy or photograph these records, we can supply verbal confirmation or a typed transcript. The cost for this service is currently $10 per transcript + $3 domestic shipping + GST. | :::As I previously mentioned, these registers tend to contain baptisms, marriages and burials in one.
