What are Archives and why do we keep them?Archives are the accumulated records of an individual or institution which merit preservation because of their possible subsequent value to the originating source for legal, administrative or personal reasons. Archives are also preserved for cultural and historical reasons. Their use as source material allows researchers to document fully and preserve the character and identity of an individual or organisation.
These are dates of many Mercy Foundations, including the first foundations made by Catherine McAuley.
