My grandmother's brother was born in Chicago in 1897. The address on the record is "702 W 20th". The family was Irish and devoutly Catholic. Can anyone tell me which parish is likely to have been the one they attended in 1897? I appreciate any help. Jeff

Using this site, you can find the closest churches to their residence. Unfortunately, it doesn't tell you what nationality most frequented these parishes. If needed, I will be going to my FHL next week and can look the closest one up for you for Irish parishioners. Let me know. http://www.chicagoancestors.org/ Regards, Kim -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, April 05, 2010 4:38 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [COOK-CO-IL] Most likely Catholic parish for my family?

It could be St. Gabriel's.
