    History of St. John Nepomucene Parish. Golden Jubilee History 1891-1941 of St. John's Parish, Prairie du Chien, WI., p. 5-43. CAP at Orchard Lake. Foreword IN writing this history of St. John's Congregation, every effort was made to record the important events pertaining to the origin and development of the parish as accurately as possible. In do- ing this we strove to adhere to facts and studiously avoided imputing motives and interpreting consequences. Where this may seem to have been done, it was ascertained to be factual. Since documentary records pertaining to the early history of the parish were scarce, we were forced to depend on the memory of the first members of the parish for some facts, but such information was carefully checked for accuracy. For more definite and detailed information we are indebted to the former pastors of St. John's still living, to the old files of The Courier, which were most helpful, and to the volume, "The Catholic Church in Wisconsin". A few interesting items were also gleaned from the "History of Bohemian Americans" by John Habenicht. It was naturally possible for us to give more complete and detailed information about the events that transpired during the thirteen years of our own pastorate. We hesitated at first to give comparatively so much more detailed information about our own times for fear that our motives might be misconstrued. However, our hesitancy was overcome by the thought that our task in writing this history would have been much easier had there been more information about ear- lier times available to us.

  • History of St. Mary's Czestochowa Parish. Golden Jubilee St
    History of St. Mary's Czestochowa Parish. Golden Jubilee St. Mary Czestochowa Catholic Church 1908-1958, Junction, Wisconsin. CAP at Orchard Lake. St. Mary Czestochowa Congregation at Junction, located one and one-half miles east of Stanley or five miles west of Thorp, Wisconsin and four miles north of Highway 29 dates back to the early 1900's for its origin, but is comparatively young as far as the history of the La Crosse Diocese is concerned. The original settlers, exclusively of Polish descent, began their residence in the Junction area around 1901. Migrating from Poland by way of Pennsylvania and Chicago and trained in hard work, they cleared the wooded and rocky area for their future homes and began the task of earning their living from the soil. The future looked bleak and difficult, but the people filled with initiative and aggressiveness of sturdy pioneers, succeeded in their endeavors with the help of God, for their land is now productive and stands as a monument to their hard labors. God and the Catholic Church always played an important role in the lives of the Polish people. Since their conversion centuries ago, they have always been faithful to the true church as the history of Poland attests to that. The settlers of Junction were no different from their forefathers. They imme- diately attached themselves to the nearest Catholic Church which happened to be located in Stanley, dedicated to the Mother of God, St. Mary's Church. By horse and on foot they went to divine services in all types of weather.

  • La Crosse Historic Landmarks
    La Crosse Historic Landmarks Preservation of La Crosse’s architectural heritage began is the 1970s when several properties were listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Historic preservation from a municipal perspective began in 1973 with the appointment of a preservation group which made a preliminary reconnaissance survey of historic buildings in 1977. A detailed professional intensive survey was completed in 1984 and updated in 1996. The City of La Crosse Preservation Ordinance that provided for local listing of architecturally and historically significant buildings was revised in 1994 requiring all previously listed properties to be re-listed. Individual properties in the city are eligible for Historic Landmark status if they meet criteria similar to the National Register. Properties are presented to the Historic Preservation Commission for consideration and approval. If approved by the commission, the application for historic status is then forwarded to the La Crosse City Council for final approval. Designation as a Historic Landmark by the city does create some level of protection for historic properties. There is a “demolition denial” clause in the ordinance and a non-binding design requirement as well. There are currently over 50 buildings listed as City of La Crosse Historic Landmarks, including the seven identified on this tour. Site 1: City Brewing Offices / Gottlieb & Johanna Heileman House 925 3rd St. South Built in 1876 The Gottlieb and Johanna Heileman House, although somewhat altered, is a fine example of late 19th century High Victorian Italianate architecture and an important landmark building related to the beer industry in La Crosse. The two-story red brick residence has a distinctive square three-story square tower placed at the junction of the two cross- gabled wings.

  • Father Bernard Mcgarty
    Saint Mary's Parish La Crosse, by Father Bernard McGarty. Nathan Myrick opened a Trading Post at Prairie La Crosse in 1841, and shortly became Post Master of a settle­ ment that grew rapidly because of Federal Land Grants and Mississippi River Steam Boats. Sioux and Ho Chunk Native Americans negotiated treaties on the Prairie and played their game, which French missionaries labeled La Crosse. Twelve years later in 1853, the profile of settlers in La Crosse was: "30% born in Europe; 39 in Germany, 29 in Norway and Sweden, 23 in Britain, 19 in Ireland, 7 in Canada, 3 in France,: 70% of settlers were born in the United States; 89 in Vermont and New England, 109 in New York, 30 in Ohio, 20 in Pennsylvania, a lesser num ~ ber from Southern States:' A Wisconsin census in 1855 listed La Crosse population, 1,637. (1.) Native American numbers are ignored. If you were to walk through the village in 1853 this is what you would see: Native Americans, painted and in re­ galia on the streets.

    History of St Hedwig's Parish. The Diamont Anniversary 1891-1966 St. Hedwig's Congregation, Thorp, WI, p. 18-31. CAP at Orchard Lake. Territorial Development St. Hedwig's Congregation established in 1891 lies in the northwest section of Clark County in the Townships of Thorp, Withee, Worden and Reseburg. Before the coming of the first white settlers, little is known of the Indian history of this area. Appar- ently this territory was occupied by the Chippewa, Menomonie, Winnebago, and Dakota Indians around the middle of the 17th century. All tribal Indian claims to Clark County lands were ceded in 1837. However, individual Indian families, were still seen and lived in some parts as late as the early 1900's. The settlement and development of this area was due to its vast stretches of timber, immediately tributary to the great waterways. The two largest, the Black River flows north and south, while the Eau Claire branches in the west and flows into the Chippewa River. Originally about one-fourth of Clark County was covered with white pine and three-fourths was covered with hardwood and hemlock. This timber was sent down the Black River to La Crosse and down the Eau Claire by way of the Chippewa River to Winona and other points. The best hardwood was in the townships which are located through the middle and eastern parts of the County. Some was found in the northern portions of the towns of Worden and Reseburg. Large forests of hardwood were also found in the Towns of Thorp and Withee.

We invite each and every one of you Venerable Brethren, by reason of the office you exercise, to exhort the clergy and people committed to you to celebrate the Marian Year which we proclaim to be held the whole world over from the month of December next until the same month of the coming year—just a century having elapsed since the Virgin Mother of God, amid the applause of the entire Christian people, shone with a new gem, when our predecessor of immortal memory solemnly decreed and defined that she was absolutely free from all stain of original sin.

Yet this same time in the life of an American parish marks a very definite milestone in the life of Christ's Church on these shores. One cannot help going back in grateful memory to all the early pioneer priests, Sisters and people who made the noblest kind of sacrifices in order that this church might be established, and even more than that, that the children of the parish might be given their birthright, namely a Christian, American education.

This digital version is published by McIntyre Library, University of Wisconsin Eau Claire with the consent of the author If society doesn't appreciate the impact of religion on the lives of people, it will sorely underestimate both what the society can do and sorely underestimate the ability of the society to achieve… If we more and more divorce ourselves from an adherence or appreciation of the impact of religion, we more and more become disinterested in terms of the impact of religion on lives, we'll quickly see ourselves in a rootlessness, if you want.

Listecki, former bishop of the Diocese of La Crosse 1 Joe Orso, “Q&A: Listecki Looks at Diocese Future, Past After Two Years as Bishop.” La Crosse Tribune (WI), July 14, 2007. ii Abstract This paper will explore how the parish community of St. Olaf in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, established in 1952, reflects the Roman Catholic Church, specifically at the local, state, and national levels in the United States. It will also discuss the various changes that have occurred in the past 60 years of its history in terms of the various locations of worship for the members, the growth of the community outreach programs, and the effects of the Second Vatican Council. This ecumenical council was a meeting of Catholic bishops from around the whole that brought reform to the Catholic Church and affected the relationship of the Catholic Church to the world.
