Genealogy information @ stbonifaceonline.com

When St. Boniface closed in 2005, all the records of the parish were transferred to the Archdiocesan Archives.

Please note: With many archive services, including the Archdiocese, there are nominal fees to cover costs of printing, copying, research and faxing your records. Not all resources listed below are free.

Please remember to ask about this when requesting information.

NOTE: If you would like a personal guide or need special assistance, contact Mike Gregory, a former St. Boniface parishioner, who has combed many archives himself and has a wide variety of information he'd be happy to share with you.

Libraries

The main St. Louis Public Library and the Carondelet Branch contain many resources about Carondelet and a variety of other sources. St. Louis County library also maintains a number of online databases.

If you are outside the St. Louis area, both libraries have e-mail addresses for various departments on their sites.

If you are a City or County resident, you can access both facilities easily, thanks to cooperating agreements between the two library systems, but you must get a library card.

Contact your local City or County librarian for more details.
