These preliminary finding aids, some of which were prepared many years ago, vary in degrees of completeness, detail and accuracy. Some provide only basic box listings of the contents of a fonds or a collection, while others provide additional background material. All are intended to be the starting point for access to the records and they should not be considered a definitive source of information on the full nature and contents of the fonds or collection. Questions about the information provided in the preliminary finding aids should be directed to archives.services@uwo.ca History of the United Church in Canada Methodist Episcopal I1 rior to 1833 Wesleyan Methodist Chruch in Canada (part of the circuit withdrew and formed a continuing Methodist Episcopal Cl.Jrch in Canada circuit in 1834).
