Hi Pat, The LDS has microfilmed the records from St. Benedict's Church. Also, I believe the Essex County website lists information about this church. It was a German church. The LDS microfilms: #1398623 baptisms 1857-1913 marriages 1864-1894 and confirmations and communions #1398624 marriages 1894-1935 deaths 1866-1919 communions and confirmation 1894-1914 Janice Danks patricia sachs wrote: > Hi, > > Would like to know if anyone knows of a St. Benedicts church > (Catholic German)in Newark.
