The series consists of approximately 4,000 cards prepared by Clarence Kipling from the parish registers of the Red River Settlement: St. John's Anglican Church, 1820-1884; St. Andrew's Anglican Church, 1835-1884; and St. Boniface Roman Catholic Church, 1824-1834. The entries for St. John's Anglican Church include marriages for 1820-1878 and 1881-1882; and deaths for 1821-1823, 1825-1838, and 1841-1875. The entries for St. Andrew's Anglican Church include marriages for 1835-1876 and 1878-1883; and deaths for 1835-1876 and 1878-1884. The entries for St. Boniface Roman Catholic Church include baptisms for 1824-1825, 1829-1830, and 1832-1834; and marriages and deaths for 1825, 1828-1830, and 1832-1834.

Library and Archives Canada does not hold the original registers to which this index relates, but the index cards contain transcripts of the information supplied by the registers. The cards originally numbered about 3,100 but additional cards were made for brides (who were not originally noticed separately from the bridegroom) and for any cards which contained multiple entries. The index cards were removed from the LAC reference room in 2009 for digitization, and vault storage in four containers: R4084, volumes 1 to 4. The cards are filed in alphabetical order: volume 1 holds surnames A to F, volume 2 holds surnames F to M, volume 3 holds surnames M to S, and volume 4 holds surnames S to Z.

Arrangement note:

These index cards, created by Kipling himself, should not be confused with the set of index cards created by Archives staff from the entries in Finding Aid No. 1368 for inclusion in the Archives General Index. The index cards created by the Archives for the General Index follow the Kipling card index on microfilm reel H-1344 (Abell family to Pacific Fur Company) and continue on reel H-1345 (Pacquet family to Zaste, André).

Availability of other formats note:

The series is also available on microfilm reel H-1344, from reel image 0004 to 4301.
