St. Mary (Roseville, Iowa)

St. Mary (Roseville, Iowa)

"After Father Ambrose Martin, a Canadian convert, came to Charles City in 1867, he frequently visited Roseville. A few years later, Father Patrick Feeley became the pastor of the Charles City parish and directed the building of the first Roseville Church in 1870.  It was probably named Saint Mary’s at the time of its dedication. The parish remained a mission of Charles City for 18 years, and then became a mission of Saint Mary’s in Greene. A new frame structure was built in 1889 to provide for the growing congregation."
