1 Detroit Conference United Methodist Archives Shipman Library Adrian College 110 S. Madison St. Adrian, MI (517) ext / dcumcarchives@adrian.edu Michigan Area Episcopal Office Records, (1968) History Note: For much of the history of American Methodism, Bishops were itinerant and not assigned to specific geographic areas. After the 1939 merger of Methodist denominations, the Methodist Church established jurisdictions in which bishops were elected by jurisdictional conferences and assigned to specific episcopal areas within each jurisdiction. Bishops continued to serve as leaders of the entire denomination, but with specific residential and presidential duties to the annual conferences. Scope Note: The subject files of the Michigan Area bishops concern the administration of the Area and the Detroit and West Michigan conferences, ecumenical efforts, overseas missions, the role of minorities and women in the church, etc. The subject files are most extensive for Bishops Edsel A. Ammons ( ), Judith Craig ( ), Donald Ott ( ), and Linda Lee ( ), although some earlier and later files appear. In addition, the collection contains files on each of the local churches in the Detroit Conference, detailing administrative changes and the Bishop's interactions with local churches. The bulk of these church files date from the service of Bishops Judith Craig, Donald Ott, Linda Lee, and Jonathan Keaton ( ). Some records covering Bishop Edsel Ammons are at the United Methodist Church Archives - General Commission on Archives and History, Madison, New Jersey. Extent: 23.2 linear feet (ca. 46,400 pages) Access Restrictions: The collection is open to research. Restrictions on Use: Photocopying is handled by the staff and may be limited in certain instances. Before using any material for publication from this collection a formal request for permission to publish is expected and required. Finding aid created by William H. McNitt, February 2013 (revised December 2014)
