                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Eight men organized Eagle Township in Black Hawk County in 1858. At least three of them are buried in the Eagle Center parish cemetery. A majority of the first settlers were Catholic. The first church was built on five acres of high ground, but never fully completed because of the economy. Train prices were depressed. After destruction in a windstorm in 1874, the church was replaced by a frame building that served the parish for over a century. The present church was completed in 1976, the property is a total of ten acres.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Bishop Mathias Loras purchased a site in 1854 for the first church in Colesburg in northeastern Delaware County. Before that time, visiting priests celebrated Mass in various homes for the Irish settlers, who came into the area as early as the 1840s, and that explains the choice of Saint Patrick for their patron. They built their first church about 1862 under Father Michael Lynch’s direction and it served until a replacement was built in 1877. Land for the cemetery was donated by John McMahon, probably in 1857 as the oldest tombstone bears that date.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>"Bishop Clement Smyth directed Father Richard Nagle to acquire land within the town of Clermont, and a frame church was dedicated by the bishop in the fall of 1860. It was named for the patron saint of Peter Cummings who donated the land. Father John Hackett came to the parish in 1881 and planned a larger church built of Clermont brick and native stone. It was dedicated in June 1884 by Bishop John Hennessey, who also blessed a bell given by State Senator William Larrabee. Years later, Governor Larrabee gave the parish a pipe organ."&#13;

                <text>"About the time this Clayton County town was looking for a name, Abd-el-Kader, an Algerian chieftain, was leading his countrymen to freedom. His bravery thrilled these Americans, and they named the town for him. Missionaries visited Elkader in the 1840s and 1850s. Then Father Patrick McGinnis came in 1856 as resident pastor. At that time the parish was named for the Nativity of Our Blessed Lady, but by 1869 it was known as Saint Joseph Parish."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&#13;

                <text>"Early pioneers of Elma in Howard County had been attracted by employment in the Great Western railroad roundhouse. They attended Saint Patrick Church at St. Cecilia’s, west of Elma, where Father Francis Gunn was pastor. In 1892 the foundation for a church was laid on Elma property donated by Lemuel Potter. Later purchases gave the parish a total of six acres. Construction was not continual, but the church was finally ready for dedication to the Immaculate Conception in the summer of 1902. With 600 seat structure was of brick with white stone trim and slate roof. The interior was frescoed by George Satory, a prominent church decorator of that era."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&#13;

                <text>"Three Catholic families of Epworth in western Dubuque County were formed into a parish by Father James Commerford in 1879. He had been ordained in Ireland in 1878 and appointed resident pastor of Placid (or Pleasant Grove) the following April. Soon after his arrival in Placid Father Commerford began celebrating Mass in the O’Connor home once a month. On November 9, 1879, the cornerstone of the first church was laid. Work on the church probably resumed the following spring, but there is no record of when it was completed or dedicated. That was probably when it was named for Saint Patrick."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
