Endres n November 23, 1818, a small group of Cincinnati Catholics sent a let- ter of appeal to John Carrere (1759–1841), a successful Baltimore mer- chant. The letter gave voice to their needs, likening them to “the lost Osheep of the house of Israel, forlorn and forsaken, destitute of the means of exercis- ing the duties of our holy religion, without guide, church, or pastor.” Cincinnati, though a sizeable frontier town of nine thousand residents on the Ohio River, had as yet no Catholic church structure or resident priest. The few Catholics—fewer than a hundred men, women, and children—were without the means of fully practicing their faith. They had assembled weekly for prayer, but gathering for Mass and participating in the sacramental life of the Church had been limited to periodic visits from circuit-riding missionaries, mostly Dominican priests head- quartered in central Kentucky. Due to a lack of numbers and resources, they were compelled to appeal to Catholics elsewhere for assistance in building a church.1 This study argues that before the 1820s Cincinnati’s Catholics had yet to form a separate, recognizable ethnoreligious subculture. Instead, they mixed easily with their non-Catholic neighbors, representing a form of frontier or republican Catholicism marked by egalitarianism, flexibility, activism, irenicism, and optimism. As a mix- ture of immigrants, including Irish, German, and French, and a few native-born, they maintained social, political, and ethnic ties with non-Catholics. Religiously, they exer- cised a certain fluidity, if not indifference, especially before an organized Catholic pres- ence developed in the city. Some gathered for worship and fellowship in the absence of any clergy; others showed a willingness to attend non-Catholic churches and in some cases, leave behind the practice of Catholicism. Still, despite the difficulties of being Catholic on the frontier, lay leaders emerged to provide the possibility of practicing the faith. Downplaying their ethnic differences in favor of a republican ideal, pioneer Catholic laity successfully organized the city’s first Catholic congregation.2 While their organizing efforts to found Christ Church—the first Catholic church in the city—have been documented, there has of yet been little attempt to study the city’s lay pioneers who brought Catholicism to the western frontier. Utilizing as a starting point the names of twenty early Cincinnati Catholics that historian V. F. O’Daniel recorded in 1920, this research explores the lives and religious experiences of Catholics who arrived prior to the establishment of Christ Church in 1819.3 WINTER 2018 3 “WITHOUT GUIDE, CHURCH, OR PASTOR” Christ Church.

    AMERICANS ON MISSION TOGETHER 1806-1865 CHAPTER 4 OVER THE MOUNTAINS TO KENTUCKY In 1788 John Carroll, who would be consecrated Bishop of Baltimore two years later, expressed the earliest known desire that the Dominican friars should form an American foundation of the Order. In response to Philadelphia Catholics who sought the ministry of Francis Antoninus Fleming, O.P., Carroll drafted an affirmative but cautious reply, colored by his experience with vagabond priests. At its close he wrote, "If Mr. Fleming be inclined to attempt an establishment for his order in Philadelphia, or any of the United States, they shall have every encouragement I can give as long as I retain any authority"[1] But Fleming died of yellow fever in 1793, and during his short ministry no Dominican establishment was formed. Bishop Carroll did not give up. In May, 1796, he informed John Troy, Dominican Archbishop of Dublin, his regular correspondent, that the Irish Augustinians were forming a province in Philadelphia.[2] But hearing no more on the subject, he left it in abeyance for more than five years. Then in 1802 a proposal came from a new source: the English province of the Friars Preachers; or more precisely, from a single member of that province. And Bishop Carroll, consistent in his desire for the good of the nascent American Church, turned with interest toward this new possibility. The Fenwick family coat of arms During the summer of 1788 when John Carroll expressed his idea of a Dominican establishment in the United States, an American youth in Belgium was preparing to enter the English Province of the Order of Preachers.

(1768–1832) NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY Edward Fenwick was born on August 19, 1768, on the family plantation in St. Mary’s County, Maryland. At the age of sixteen he left his family to attend the College of the Holy Cross in Bornhem, Belgium. Upon completion of his studies, and inspired by his Dominican uncle, he entered the Order of Preachers, joining the English Dominican province on December 4, 1788, as a novice where he was given the religious name Dominic. He was solemnly professed in 1790 and ordained a priest in 1796 at the Cathedral of Saint Baron in Ghent. Following nine years of ministry in the English Dominican province, Fenwick returned to his homeland to fulfill his dream to establish a Dominican Province in the United States. Unable to receive permission from Archbishop John Carroll of Baltimore to found a college in Maryland, he responded to the need for priests on the frontier of Kentucky. In 1806, Fenwick and four fellow friars founded the first Dominican community in the United States in Washington County, Kentucky. The community was placed under the patronage of the first canonized saint of the Americas—the Dominican tertiary, St.

  • Founding the Church in Ohio
    CHAPTER 6 FOUNDING THE CHURCH IN OHIO Hardly was the Dominican mission well started in Kentucky when letters to Bishop John Carroll from Ohio settlers led to a new missionary venture. It would be significant for the Order and the Catholic Church in the United States, and particularly for the first bishop of Ohio. The first letter on record was that of Jacob Dittoe who arrived in Ohio two years after it achieved statehood. In 1805 he wrote on behalf of a colony of thirty German Catholics around Lancaster, promising land for a church if the nation's first Catholic bishop could provide a priest for them.[1] A second letter was sent to Baltimore by two men of the small Ohio capital of Chillicothe near the western end of the National Road. On February 1, 1807, they wrote, We join our hands as one man in supplication to you desiring a priest, as there is no teacher of our Church in this part of the country; and if it is convenient for you to send us one we will do everything that is reasonable to support him. We have made no calculation of what might be collected yearly as we did not know whether we could be supplied or not; neither can we give a true account of the number of Catholics; but as nigh as we can come, is betwixt 30 and 40 which came from the Eastern Shore . .[2] In the summer of 1808 Bishop Carroll, having read this letter and endorsed it "Important," received Edward Fenwick on a visit from Kentucky.

Standing at the window of the Cathedral residence shortly before his death, and noticing the sisters passing by, Arch- bishop John Baptist Purcell commented to a friend, "Ah, there go the dear Sisters of Charity, the first who gave me help in all my undertakings, the zealous pioneer religious of this city, and the first female religious of Ohio,—who were never found wanting, and who always bore the brunt of the battle.' When four Sisters of Charity arrived in Cincinnati, Ohio, in Octo- ber 1829 to open an orphanage and school, they were among the trailblazers in establishing the Roman Catholic Church on a sound footing in a diocese which encompassed almost the entire Northwest Territory. These women were members of a Catholic religious com- munity founded in 1809 by Elizabeth Bayley Seton with its motherhouse in Emmitsburg, Maryland.
