The Verschoyle Phillip Cronyn Memorial Archives
Currently located at 1349 Western Road, London; located below the Chapel of St. John the Evangelist, Huron University College.
The V.P. Cronyn Archives were established to create a safe and secured central repository of records created by the churches, clergy, parishioners, and general Synod activities of the Huron Diocese. Holdings include records pertaining to church histories, parish registers recording baptisms, marriages, and burials, administrative records of individual parishes, administrative records of Diocesan activities, and records pertaining to Synod.
The Archives are open Monday-Friday from 9:30am-12:30pm and 1:00pm-4:30pm.
PLEASE NOTE: The V.P. Cronyn Memorial Archives will be closing on Tuesday, December 23, 2025 at 3:30pm for the winter closure of the Huron University College campus. We will reopen on Monday, January 5, 2026 at 9:30am to resume regular business hours.
Visitors are welcome during opening hours, however, appointments are strongly encouraged to ensure that staff is available to assist you. Churches interested in depositing records in the Archives are asked to make an appointment to do so.
