Biographical / Historical

Immaculate Conception Catholic Church became a Station of Providence in 1871. Masses were performed by Father Henry Best in private homes. In 1875, the first church was built. Unfortunately in 1877, a barrel factory closed and the church lost half of its members. In 1883, the church became a Mission of Custar. The church became a Mission of North Baltimore in 1893. In 1897, a new brick church was built. In 1902, Immaculate Conception became a Mission of Hamler. A third church was built in 1962. Immaculate Conception became a Mission of Custar for a second time in 1970.
