Urban was certainly one of them, but his extensive missionary travels make it difficult to determine where he took up residence at any particular date. While Father Urban visited them, he urged the Tama County Czechs to build a church near Chelsea. Before that the little church in Toledo, built by Father William Emmonds in the 1850s, had been the place for Catholic services. In 1867 they bought four acres of land from John Frnka, about one mile west of the present town of Chelsea, and built a church named for Saint Anthony." -Kurt, Rev. Msgr.

Description An account of the resource '“As the Czech population of Cedar Rapids grew early in this century, many had to find homes farther from Saint Wenceslaus Church. It was the only Czech-speaking Catholic church in the city and it was on the east side of the Cedar River. Some of the parishioners living west of the Cedar began to ask for a church of their own, in their desire to have their parish church nearby. A house with almost four acres was purchased on the West Side in early 1914 and remodeled for school use. In October 1914 the school opened to 65 students taught by four Notre Dame Sisters from Fenton, Missouri.  At Saint Ludmila church the Sisters established their first American novitiate, which was later transferred to Omaha.”' -Kurt, Rev.

Description An account of the resource "In the year of his ordination to the priesthood, Father Michael Carolan went to Mason City on October 25, 1877, and remained as pastor of Saint Joseph Parish until his death on December 30, 1917. Because he extended his missionary efforts throughout a large area and especially northwest of Mason City, he was probably the first to serve the Catholics of the Buffalo Center area. His assistants also probably gave pastoral service to the area. Among them were Fathers Laurence Hayes (1899 to 1902) and Patrick Molloy (1908 to 1918)." -Kurt, Rev. Msgr.

Father John Shiels began to minister to the Catholics of Cedar Falls in 1856 and directed the building of a brick church on the corner of 8th and Washington Streets in 1857, making it the oldest parish in Black Hawk County. For eight years Father Shiels visited Cedar Falls every month or so as he looked after the spiritual needs of people in several counties." -Kurt, Rev. Msgr.
