Hello Pam, welcome to our Message Board. Sorry that I'm just getting around to answering your request.

If you click on the link below, you will find other links of interest.

Click on the 2nd link on the left (Access Your AGO Records) Our records are kept at the Archdiocese of Chicago. The Website & Phone number are included.

Keep in mind that only the next of Kin can request their records, so you will have to prove your relationship to that person. If you see anything that is blacked out, that's because you are not privy to that information, such as a sibling.

You should request (ALL) Records meaning: Intake Records, Medical Records, Sacrament Records, Visiting Records, Report Cards, etc.

Depending on how many copies they have to make (about 0.25 a copy) plus postage, the whole process should take about a month or so. They will call you with the total when ready.

If you have any questions, you can contact me at AGOAlum@aol.com
