In 1842 (shortly after division), her jurisdiction was described as "Demerara, Essequibo, Berbice".[3] In 1866, there were two archdeaconries: Hugh Hyndman Jones was Archdeacon of Demerara and that of Berbice was vacant.[4]
The diocese also covers Suriname and Cayenne/French Guiana.[5]
In a 2002 census, about 7% of Guyanese described themselves as Anglican.
