A church directory lists church ministers and parishes and other ecclesiastical jurisdictions, such as presbyteries, dioceses, and so forth. Directories can provide important information, including:
- Addresses for church officials.
- Lists of church jurisdictions and headquarters.
- Chronological lists of principal church officials.
- Brief biographies or career summaries of current ministers.
- Addresses of church schools or other institutions.
Directories exist for many denominations. To find the call number for a directory in the Family History Library, look in the Family History Library Catalog under SCOTLAND - CHURCH DIRECTORIES.
You can also find directories in other libraries, archives, and repositories.
