Mass in home or school continued until they built a church holding eight pews. Two ladies of the parish deserve the credit for getting the church built. Mrs. Mary Ryan, who was in her eighties, and Mrs. McElmeel went house to house soliciting funds. The date of building the frame church is not recorded. The first baptism of record was administered on March 25, 1883, by Father J. F. Richardson, an assistant at Saint Raphael Cathedral in Dubuque.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Holy Family Parish owes its beginning and many years of its existence to its close neighbors, the monks of New Melleray Abbey. Because the people had little funds and the monastery wished to help them have their own church, one of the monks appealed to his wealthy sister in Europe for a donation which made possible the building of a small stone church. The parish continued to be taken care of by the monks, and a larger church became necessary. So a frame church was built at the north end of the present cemetery. That church was replaced 20 years later by the present brick structure, which was dedicated to the Holy Family in 1889 by Bishop Hennessy.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>"In the early 1880s Father Patrick H. Ryan lived in the Tom Magirl home while forming a parish and building a church. The church foundations are still visible in Calvary Cemetery on highway 13, about two miles south of Ryan. Completed about 1882, the church was named for Saint Michael, and the place was called Belmont. […]. Father Ryan encouraged other Irish to settle in the area, and a town began on the Steve McAleer farm. It was named for Father Ryan as he helped the Catholics north and west to form a new parish. A small frame church in Ryan was finished in 1885 and named for Saint Patrick."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; - Kurt, Rev. Msgr.

                <text>"Catholics of northeastern Jackson County received permission from Bishop Clement Smyth to build their first church on land given by Christina Burns and her son Zachariah. The community came to be known as Burns Settlement, but the name of the location of the church changed to Otter Creek early in this century. […] The people obtained stone from a nearby quarry and began the building in 1861. When it was completed in 1866, they no longer had to travel long distances to Saint Theresa or Garryowen for Mass. They named their church for Saint Lawrence the Deacon.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Kurt, Rev. Msgr. Edgar, “Parish Profile #61,” &lt;em&gt;The Witness,&lt;/em&gt; February 14, 1988.</text>

                <text>"Located about 15 miles northwest of Dubuque, the parish was established at French Settlement, about two miles from the present site. There French families of the Trois-Rivieres district of Quebec had put down their roots. […] Bishop Mathias Loras occasionally offered Mass there, usually in the home of Dominic Gandolfo. In 1848 Father Joseph Cretin, later the Bishop of St. Paul, mentions in a letter that he was serving the little “French Church.” According to early church directories, it was dedicated to Se. Joseph Calasanctius. The first recorded baptism is dated 1852."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Kurt, Rev. Msgr. Edgar, Parish Profile #5, &lt;i&gt;The Witness&lt;/i&gt;, N.D.</text>
