History of St. Mary Catholic Church,
Hillsboro, Ohio

Father Cornelius Daly, who had come from Ireland and was serving as pastor of
Fayetteville, Ohio, visited Hillsboro about 1845. He discovered about fifteen
Catholic families in the vicinity. Despite the small numbers, a Catholic Church was
built in 1852. It was blessed by Father Baraga while Archbishop Purcell assisted.
Father Michael Forde was the celebrant. The Archbishop delivered the sermon.

Mary Boegelin was the first person recorded to be baptized in the new church and
the first recorded marriage is that of Joseph Smith and Catherine Barry. Other
names found in the early records are: McMahon, Carroll, Foley, Nickerson,
Maroney, Lynch, Feike, Collins, Dillon, McIntyre, McGlinchey, Hanlon, Caniff,
Doorley, McCormick, Ingebrand, Gorman, Raines, Hommell, Rodgers, Baker,
Winegardner, Haley, Donoghue, Holleran, Curry, Grady, Conway, Vaughn,
Stabler, Smith, Madden, Sullivan, Engbers, Baige, Fallon, Nugent, Bond, Henley,
Kepler, Berg, Hicker, Culhan, Devitt, Campbell, O'Connell, Burke, Hughes,
McCabe, Bailey.

Today St. Mary has a membership of approximately 600 people. In 1988 a
multi-purpose building was added to provide classrooms, kitchen, multi-purpose
room and spacious narthex. A short hallway joins it to the Church. From the
hallway a view of Mary's Garden, dedicated to the memory of Nicki Piezer, can be
seen.

Fr. Stanley Luehrmann is the pastor. He has been at St. Mary Church for 12 years.
During this time he has helped to initiate several programs and expand the scope of
ministry. He is active in community ministerial groups. He came to St. Mary
Church after serving as Pastor at St. Teresa of Avila in Cincinnati. He taught

German at Elder High School and at the Athenaeum in Cincinnati.

We suscipicion the date of death s/b 1890 rather than 1880.
