Michigan Conference Methodist Episcopal Journals, 1836-1855

When the Michigan Conference first met in 1836, it included several districts from northwest Ohio and did not include the churches in southwest Michigan that were part of the Indiana Conference. After 1839, these discrepancies were resolved and the boundaries of the Michigan Conference came to match those of the state.

The archives has digitized copies of typed transcripts of the earliest handwritten journals which are preserved in the West Michigan Conference Archives, but after the first decade the conference began publishing its conference proceedings and those have been digitized as part of book digitization projects by others.
