About the same time, James McGregor gave the Catholic parish a parcel of land at the head of Main Street, where Father B. C. Linehan caused a school and Sister’s home ot be built in 1868. Three Sisters of Charity came from Dubuque to conduct the school, which continued for 25 years. When the enrollment dwindled, the school was closed in 1894.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>"Saint Mary Parish is the second parish to be founded in New Hampton. Its beginning is unusual. The school was established and in operation for three years before the first church was built. The German speaking parents in Saint Joseph Parish wanted their children to receive religious instruction in German so that they could assist in teaching their children. If we review the resident pastors of Saint Joseph’s, we realize it must have been English speaking from its beginning: Father Burke, Gosker, Leahy, and Reilly. In 1890 the German Catholics established a parochial school. The first teachers were laymen. In March 1892 land was purchased for the building of a church, which was completed the next summer. On the feast of the Visitation, July 2, 1894, Father Bernard H. Forkenbrock was appointed pastor." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Rev. Msgr.

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Bishop John Hennessy established the Strawberry Point parish in the southwest corner of Clayton County in 1878 and appointed Father John Hackett pastor. They had been served by missionary priests coming into the area and celebrating Mass in the homes of Bartholomew Dillion, James Ivory, Michael O’Brien, James Fitzpatrick, and T. Kelly. Father Hackett directed the purchase of property in the town of Strawberry Point and the building of a church. The 30’ by 60’ church was completed in 1880 and dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary on May 23 of that year.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Saint Mary Church at Spencer’s Grove, two and a half miles north of Urbana, “stood out in the prairie like a lonely sentinel of the Lord,” according to Father Hubert Holsters, writing in the Centennial History of the Archdiocese. For many years before Sacred Heart Parish of Walker was established, Saint Mary’s was the only Catholic parish in that area between the Cedar and the Wapsipinicon rivers, between Independence and Cedar Rapids. In 1870 a priest from Cedar Rapids came regularly to celebrate Mass in the home of Anthony Wahl. Wahl’s son-in-law kept faithful record of collections. The first is dated January 16, 1870, and amounted to $1.15.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>"Father John Zlebcik, a native of Bohemia and missionary to the Bohemian and German Catholics from Tama to Cedar Rapids, established many parishes while resident at Norway, Iowa. One of them is Saint Mary Parish at Vining in Tama County. In 1874, Adelbert Petranek donated a few acres of Land about two miles east of the present town of Vining for a Catholic cemetery and a place to build a church. Mr. Petranek and his neighbors soon built a church under the direction of Father John Zlebcik. Mass and the other sacraments were celebrated only every few months because of the large territory covered by Father Zlebik and his successors, Father Francis L. Mikota and Father Francis Chmelar."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Kurt,&amp;nbsp;Rev. Msgr. Edgar, Parish Profile #150, The Witness, November 19, 1989.</text>

                <text>"The second parish in Waterloo Catholic history is Saint Mary’s, which began with the appointment of a pastor in 1898. “The German Catholic Saint Mary’s Building Association” was formed in 1894 to work toward a German parish. The German Catholics began building the first Saint Mary Church of the downtown location of the YWCA. When they asked Archbishop John J. Hennessy for a pastor, he appointed Father Henry J. Hemesath on January 18, 1898. Less than a week later Father Hemesath celebrated Mass in the basement of the church. When the church was completed, the basement was converted into a classroom. The following year three Franciscan Sisters arrived from Dubuque to take over teaching the 36 pupils. They were the first of over 200 Franciscans to serve the parish." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Kurt,&amp;nbsp;Rev. Msgr.

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Several Brannon families came from Ohio in 1852 and were followed by their friends in later years. They built a stone church dedicated to Saint Rose, which was supplanted by a larger frame church in 1877. When lightning struck the church in 1881, another frame church was hastily built. It was declared unsafe in 1897 and there was serious thought of building in the town of Waucoma, which had prospered in the meantime. After many Sunday afternoon meetings, the parishioners sent J. J. Kieron to Archbishop Hennessy with the solution of building within the town of Waucoma. He readily gave permission and sent Father Martin Hogan to care for Saint Rose and build the church in Waucoma.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

A few years later Bishop Mathias Loras bought a block of property from Frederick Cretzmeyer in 1855.
