Correspondence Series E consists of annual reports to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel from its missionaries, arranged by diocese. The reports provide historical and statistical information on the various missions and on the activities of the missionaries. Some of the missionaries merely filled in the printed questionnaire forms supplying the required statistics of their missions, but others often added additional comments in an accompanying letter. They often remarked on the economy of the community, growth of the congregation, work of Sunday schools, church building projects, and the activities of local auxiliaries. The National Archives holds selections consisting of excerpts relating to dioceses within what is now Canada, 1845-1885 (reels A-221 to A-248), and 1901-1951 (reels A-1904 to A-1917).
