Today we’ve added six new volumes to
Massachusetts: (Image-Only) Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston Records, 1789-1900, from Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Roxbury. The original Our Lady of Perpetual Help church was blessed in 1871, founded by the Redemptorists. It was a mission church, meaning that they only provided the sacraments of communion and reconciliation. As the Catholic population in Mission Hill grew, they needed a new parish church in the area. In 1883, this church joined the Archdiocese of Boston as a “regular canonical parish.” Since its beginning, this church has been known as the Mission Church. This update is possible thanks to the help of our wonderful volunteers Francis Alix, Angela Napolitano, Eileen McCarthy, and Ross and Linda Weaver.
