St. Mary (Guttenberg, Iowa)
Title
St. Mary (Guttenberg, Iowa)
Description
"Saint Mary Parish began with the French Catholics who settled in Clayton County as early as 1833, and missionary priests celebrated Mass and the sacraments whenever they came to the village. The first German families arrived in 1845. Guttenberg became a flourishing river town because of lead mining in the area, the sawmills, stone quarries, and steamboat traffic on the Mississippi. In one year, 1857, 620 steamboats stopped in or passed by."
