The Vestry series includes minutes of the regular meetings and of the annual parish meeting. This series dates from 1843 and runs to the late 1980s, and the mid-2000s to the 2010s. Also included are annual reports.

Scattered throughout the collection is material of value to the genealogist. Of particular use are the parish registers (ca. 1824-1875) which include records of baptisms, marriages, deaths, and communicants in the period of 1824 to 1877. Later records remain with the church.

The Church Programs series documents some of the outreach efforts of the church and its mission to the students of the University of Michigan through the Hobart Society. A portion of the series documents the Episcopal Lay Chaplaincy Program which provided spiritual support to members of the Episcopal church. The material includes bylaws, correspondence, minutes, and more.
