I went back to the New Bedford Library, and noted for others: Mass Death Index (whole state) - Fiche - 1841 - 1895 Mass Death Index (whole state) - Rolls - 1896 - 1971. Actual Records: (whole state) Up to 1900. Thus, I was able to check the death records up to 1900. I still have to find the (Fall River) Death Records for 1905, 1905, 1909, 1912, 1915, 1921, 1925 & 1927. Will the MA Archives have the actual records for those above years (1905 - 1927), or just 1910? Perhaps the LDS catalogue would be a possible idea. Does anyone know how I could find that out? Isn't the catalogue on line? (I use the LDS database, but not the catalogue). Thanks.

When i knew it, it was a boarding school and residence for priests and nuns. That doesn't mean it didn't have a parish at the time though. What part of town did they live in? St. Joes served the center, while St Mary srved the north end of town--more or less..... Anyway, give them a call.
