Above Historical Information was started from lists found in the OUR LADY OF PEACE DEDICATION brochure December 10, 1967. Information was then added to update it and make it current.
Sisters left to right: Sr. Anacletus Oger, Sr. Celestine Watson (?), Sr. Maria Goretti (Mary Jean) Swaykus, Sr. Romaine Welker (?), St. Claudia Schneider (?), Sr. Mary Cephas (Virginia) Sweeney. The priest may be Fr. John P. Tague, First Assistant Pastor. If so, the photo was 1954-58. The place is probably the old rectory, or the convent.
