Abstract

This small collection brings together limited files on churches in Oberlin and just outside of it in Lorain County. Few of these materials are church records, but rather collected clippings, booklets, programs, ephemera, and some compiled historical information. Larger holdings for individual churches have their own record groups within Oberlin Community Records: Church/Religious-based Organizations (RG 31/004).
