St. Barbara Church Dedication Album

Father Joseph Jarosz laying down a bed of mortar for the cornerstone.

Time capsule that will be concealed in the cornerstone. Does anyone know what was placed inside the capsule?

Archbishop Edward F. Hoban exiting the rectory on his way to the church dedication. Sylvia Juris is the young girl carrying the basket of flowers. The little girl between her and the Bishop may be Audrey Fitch.

Archbishop Hoban proceeding from the rectory to the church. In the background is a view of East Denison Hardware.

The parishioners standing in the street in front of the church. In the background is "Kilroy's" house which sat at the corner of W.15th and Denison Ave.

The church interior. Note that the painted decorations have not yet been applied to the ceiling, walls, and other surfaces. Nor are the statues at the side altars yet on the wall.

The pews fully filled with parishioners.
