There are three basic levels of ordination in Anglicanism: bishop, priest and deacon. All ordained ministers start out as deacons. Most move on to become priests in about a year. See Wikipedia: Anglican ministry.
Priests who became archbishops, bishops, deans, or archdeacons are usually categorized according to those positions. Priest associated strongly with a particular parish of a member church may be placed in categories for priests, vicars and rectors of that parish if desired. Otherwise, they should be placed in categories for priests of their member church of the communion. When those categories become overly crowded, categories may be created for priests assigned to specific dioceses of particular member churches.
The first Church of England parish in the American Colonies was founded in Jamestown, Virginia in 1607. Anglicanism in the Colonies remained under the Church of England's Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts until 1776 when Congress and several states passed laws making the oaths of allegiance to the English king and prayers for the king and British Parliament acts of treason. It took a few years to work out methods of ordination without the proscribed oaths and prayers and a constitution for the Episcopal Church (United States of America).
Anglican priests serving in Colonial America prior to 1789 should be categorized in the subcategories under Category: Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, Church of England Priests. Those serving after 1789 should be categorized under this category and its subcategories.
