The ONC files are not as well organized as the other Pacific vicariates and they contain many unclassified and unnamed sections. Most of the documents are in French. Included in the papers are correspondence, mission reports, list of publications, sketch maps, statistics, journal and other miscellaneous manuscripts and printed documents, such as dictionaries and catechisms.
