The fonds consists of registers of baptisms, 1770-1926; marriages, 1770-1855 and 1880-1927; burials, 1771-1854 and 1880-1927; and lists of communicants, 1780-1834 and persons confirmed, 1835-1842. The registers were kept in German until the late 1830s. These records are on microfilm reels M-2210 and M-2211.

LAC transcribed and translated some of the earlier registers, which were then microfilmed on reel C-3022. This reel holds a transcript, translated from German to English, of the registers of baptisms, marriages, burials, and list of communicants of the Dutch Reformed Congregation of Lunenburg, 1770-1818. It also contains a transcript of the registers of the successor Presbyterian church, including baptisms 1837-1870, marriages 1837-1855, and burials, 1837-1854.

LAC did not translate or transcribe the German language registers of Rev. Adam Moschel, 1819-1837, and did not transcribe the post-1870 registers.
