You can try the Diocese of Metuchen which Perth Amboy would fall under. Someone said Holy Spirit but I believe it was founded at a later date than you are looking for. I think St Mary's might be older and a place to start. St Stephen's is Polish. http://www.diometuchen.org/mainweb/diocese.htm P Best Researching the following surnames: Aaroe, Best, Bonham, Brooks, Damen, Donohue/Donahue, Deremer/Deriemer, Dunham, Eakeley, Eike/ Eyke/ Ike, Fuller, Haffenden, Haggerty, Hendershot, Hooey, Kitzeler, Lippington, Lothrop, McNally/Nally, Mitchell, Oberhuber, Parlan, Pierce, Pruden, Roche/Roach, Sickles/Sickels, Smith, South, Suart, Thompson, Thielen/Thelen, Tiger/Tyger, Woertman/Workman -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2004 10:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [NJMID] Catholic churches in/around Perth Amboy-1860s Trying to find marriage date for my ggrandparents who immigrated from Ireland. Their first-born daughter was noted in the 1860 census in Perth Amboy. Would anyone know what Catholic churches were in/around Perth Amboy so I can give a look or write a letter? Thanks.
