St John’s Anglican Church, Newcastle
$50.00
Format: BOOK
Baptism, Marriage and Burial registers from St Johns Church including parish censuses.
Mindful of Newcastle’s growing mining population, a group of generous Australian Agricultural Company benefactors provided finance for the construction, between 1856 and 1860, of a new complex of buildings in Parry Street, of which St John’s Church was the principal structure, together with a school room and parsonage. St John’s is now recognised as the oldest Anglican Church building, still extant, in the Newcastle district. It is included on the National Estate Register and is also subject to a Permanent Conservation Order under the NSW State Heritage Act. This publication includes a short history of St John’s.
