This fonds consists of an typed transcript by Louis J. Daley of the information contained in the Roman Catholic Census of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, taken in 1878-1879. Every attempt was made to adhere to the original, leaving spelling errors intact. Although undated, comparisons with Canadian censuses and baptismal records put the date at 1878/79. The ledger from which this volume has been transcribed was found by Mr. Daley in the basement of the Bishop's Palace in Charlottetown in the summer of 1991.

The census contains extensive information about Catholics living in 716 households in Charlottetown. It documents household number, street, father's name, mother's maiden name, clergy officiating at the marriage, occupations, school attended by children in the family, and remarks. Occupations sometimes give employer's name as well, e.g. Baker @ Quirk's. Enumerators are supposed to have been Father Nazaire Charles Antoine Bouderault and Father Stephen Phelan, assistants at the cathedral parish at the time.

The Diocese of Charlottetown was created on 11 August 1829, largely through the efforts of Bishop Angus Bernard MacEachern. The Diocese encompasses all of the parishes on Prince Edward Island although it also originally included New Brunswick and the Magdalen Islands as well. St. Dunstan's parish is the largest parish within the Diocese, originally taking in all of the City of Charlottetown, with the parish church of St. Dunstan's, built in 1812, located in the heart of the city. As well as ministering to the spiritual and physical well-being of their congregations, it appears to have been the custom of the Diocese to do periodic censuses of their parishioners.

The fonds consists of copies of legal documents, sketches of the history and clergy of the church, as well as the guest book and account of the 100th anniversary service.

The fonds consists of copies of the petition for incorporation, the charter of incorporation, by-laws and minutes of Station No. 4 of the Fishermen's Union of Prince Edward Island. The latter include minutes of Station No. 13 from 18 August 1936 to 19 January 1937. Minutes of Station 4 cover the following dates: 13 February 1937 - 14 November 1943 and 6 November 1953 - 30 July 1965.

The collection consists of two large binders of colour photographs (ca. 400) of the cemeteries and the individual headstones of Islanders who died overseas in the second world war. One binder is dedicated to the cemeteries in Italy while the other contains images from cemeteries in Belgium, France, Germany, and Holland. They are arranged by cemetery and are often preceded by a ground plan of the cemetery and the names of the Islanders who are buried there. The list occasionally contains a place of residence in PEI and/or the unit the soldier served with. There are also ca 800 identified negatives of the cemeteries and headstones which appear in the binders as well as many other cemeteries, including some in Great Britain. A few are of graves of soldiers in World War I and some are for graves of non-Islanders. Not all images which appear in the binders have corresponding negatives. Negative numbers appear on the verso of photos for which there are corresponding negatives. Similarly, negatives for which imagines appear in the binders are identified in the index to the graves. The fonds also contains a few textual items concerning errors in the "Island magazine" article, casualties, cemeteries in Normandy and the graves of war dead in Prince Edward Island.
