The Records of the Board of Foreign Parishes are an accumulation of documentation created or collected by officers of the Board and bear the stamp of several Board members, primarily Lindley M. Franklin, Jr., Jeffrey Hill, and Conner Fay. The nearly complete archive includes financial records, minutes, property records, by-laws, charters, estate records, printed material, and insurance records.

Of particular interest in the collection are the business and financial records, notably the correspondence. Other records reflect the administrative involvement of the Board including charters, minutes, estates and real property documents.
