Since the Institute of Sisters of Mercy of Australia and Papua New Guinea was formed in 2012 the Archives and Heritage Services, and their associated collections, have been merged.
During the initial stages of combining the archives of the 15 Sisters of Mercy congregations which formed ISMAPNG, five Archives and Heritage Centres were established:
Additionally, there was the Mercy Heritage Centre Perth, WA which held collections of photographs and memorabilia.
In 2019, these Archives and Heritage Services, and the Mercy Heritage Centre, Perth were closed and the collections were moved to a single ISMAPNG Archives and Heritage Centre based in Sydney. All records related to children's homes and institutions run by the Sisters of Mercy in the 15 congregations are held in this central location.
We do not currently have any photographs linked to this entry. If you know of any additional photographs, please contact us.
The Find & Connect Support Service can help people who lived in orphanages and children's institutions look for their records.
