Today we’ve added five new volumes to Massachusetts: Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston Records, 1789-1920 for Immaculate Conception of Stoughton. This update adds over 490 pages, 9,000 records and over 36,000 new names to search.
The new volumes are listed below:
- Immaculate Conception (Stoughton) Baptisms and Marriages, 1859-1884

Masses were celebrated in Stoughton as early as 1840. In 1848, the first regular Mass was performed to a congregation of 14 people in a private home. In 1859 land was purchased for a church building, and the church was completed in November that same year.
