Gregory Thurston Bedell papers, 1853-1880.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/655778669

Papers relate chiefly to Bedell's episcopate and have a broad range of interests. Most are correspondence with Bishop William Rollinson Whittingham. Diocesan papers include substantial materials on the affairs of Kenyon College; Bedell's efforts for a theological seminary in Ohio; and his desire for an Episcopal Church university. Among other subjects are his Civil War prayers, support of the Freedmans' Commission after the war, views on lay discipline, and papers concerning many clergymen, among them difficulties over the consecration of William C. Doane as bishop, 1868-1869. Matters of wider interest are Bedell's work on the Italian Church Reformation Commission of the House of Bishops, 1865-1868, and the Mexican Commission of the House of Bishops, 1874-1876, regarding relations with the Roman Catholic Church in Europe and the Church of Jesus in Mexico. Other letters concern relations with the Church of England, the Orthodox Churches, and the Old Catholic Churches, as well as conditions in Germany. There are a few letters about Bedell's European travels.
